This first-floor, two-double-bedroom apartment in Selden Hill offers an affordable entry into Hemel Hempstead town-centre living. At about 569 sq ft the open-plan living/dining space leads to a balcony shared with the master bedroom, bringing outdoor access and daylight into the home. The property includes two bathrooms (one en suite) and secure allocated gated parking.
The flat is in a modern development constructed 2003–2006 and benefits from double glazing and electric underfloor heating. The long lease (975 years) reduces long-term tenure risk and makes the property straightforward for buyers and lenders. Commuters will value the short walk to Hemel Hempstead mainline station and local amenities including shops, malls and leisure facilities.
The apartment requires renovation and updating throughout; cosmetic and functional works are needed to bring the flat up to modern standards. Annual costs include an average service charge of £2,400 and a ground rent of £200. The town-centre setting means a compact overall size—suitable for buyers prioritising location over space.
Other practical points: broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, but the immediate area records higher crime levels. This property will suit first-time buyers or investors prepared to refurbish for rental or resale, looking for a well-located, long-lease apartment with immediate vacant possession (no upper chain).
