Summary - CROSFIELD COURT 244-248 1 LOWER HIGH STREET WATFORD WD17 2DB
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Compact, well-presented one-bedroom apartment with private patio and communal parking.
Ground-floor retirement flat, short walk to Watford town centre
A ground-floor retirement apartment presented for the over-60s, set a short walk from Watford town centre. The flat is compact but well-presented with a sizeable reception room that opens onto a private paved patio and views over maintained communal gardens. Residents benefit from on-site facilities including a communal lounge, laundry room and allocated/visitor parking.
Practical details important to buyers: this is a leasehold property sold via Modern Auction subject to a reserve price. A non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) and additional auction costs apply. Annual costs include a service charge (approx. £2,375) and ground rent (approx. £425), and heating is electric storage radiators.
The apartment suits someone downsizing who values easy access to shops, public transport and local amenities, or an investor targeting retirement accommodation. The layout is single-level with one double bedroom and a separate bathroom; overall internal space is modest (circa 414 sq ft), so it will be most comfortable for one person or a couple.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly: the sale route via auction brings extra upfront fees and tight completion timescales; the development records relatively high local crime levels; and running costs (service charge, ground rent, electric heating) may be higher than a typical owner-occupied flat. Prospective purchasers must review the buyer information pack and complete their own due diligence before bidding.
