This ground-floor two-bedroom flat offers an affordable entry into Harpenden close to shops, schools and open countryside. Newly refurbished throughout, the apartment feels fresh and bright with a fitted kitchen, contemporary bathroom and double glazing. Residents’ parking and pleasant communal gardens add practical outdoor space without private maintenance.
The layout is compact (approximately 510 sq ft) and well suited to first-time buyers or downsizers wanting a low-maintenance home within walking distance of the town centre and station. Gas central heating and recent upgrades reduce immediate work needed, and the communal grounds provide a safe area for children or pets.
Important practical points are clear: the property is leasehold with a low annual service charge (£975.89) and a nominal ground rent (£10). Lease length is shown in the details (figures provided vary; prospective buyers should confirm the remaining term). The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and has a timber frame with partial insulation, so buyers may want to review warranty and insulation information.
A minor note from the inspection: the kitchen area showed signs that merit further inspection for possible damp. The flat is offered vacant for a straightforward purchase and suits anyone seeking a move-in-ready home close to excellent local schools, transport links and country walks.
