A second-floor, one-bedroom apartment in Parkhouse Court offering straightforward, city-edge rental potential. The 560 sq ft flat (built 2007+) sits in a modern mixed-use development and benefits from double glazing, a fitted kitchen with integrated fridge-freezer, a balcony that catches morning sun, and allocated off-street parking.
This is a chain-free leasehold with 139 years remaining, making it easy to transact. The property is well placed for Hatfield Business Park, the Galleria and De Havilland Campus, with good A1(M) access and direct public transport into central London — features that support short-term and longer lettings. The vendor’s estimate suggests a gross yield close to 8.5%, underlining its appeal to investors.
Buyers should note the ongoing costs and local context: a service charge averaging £2,385pa and a £240pa ground rent apply, and the wider neighbourhood records a very high crime level. Heating and electricity are provided via a community scheme; broadband speeds are average while mobile signal is excellent. The flat is presented neutrally with carpet and lino floors and will suit investors or first-time buyers prepared to accept regular service charges and the neighbourhood profile.
Overall, this compact, modern apartment delivers practical, low-maintenance accommodation and clear rental credentials, but its value proposition depends on tolerance for the local crime statistics and the ongoing service charges.
