Set on the Grand Union Canal, this two-bedroom first-floor flat offers genuine canalside living just a two-minute walk from Berkhamsted station. The location is a major convenience: fast rail links to London and the town’s independent high street are both within easy strolling distance.
The accommodation includes a living room, separate kitchen, two bedrooms and a family bathroom across approximately 576 sq ft. An allocated car port space plus additional visitor parking and secure communal bike storage are valuable extras for a central location where parking is at a premium.
The flat requires renovation and updating, offering scope to add contemporary finishes and value. Practical considerations include electric storage heating and a leasehold tenure with about 93 years remaining. Buyers should factor in planned works and the moderate ground rent when assessing affordability.
Notable local factors: the development sits in attractive canal-side grounds and benefits from excellent mobile signal, but crime levels in the immediate area are reported as high. This property will suit a buyer seeking a well-located project with strong transport links and character, rather than someone looking for a fully finished, turn-key home.
