This modern one-bedroom apartment in Shefford offers a manageable, contemporary home for a first-time buyer or a simple buy-to-let opportunity. Set within a brick-built development (2007–2011), the property has a bright open-plan living/kitchen with a Juliet balcony and secure undercroft parking for one car.
Practical running costs are attractive: mains gas central heating, double glazing, and a very cheap council tax band. The location is convenient — a short walk to Shefford High Street shops, pubs and restaurants, easy access to countryside walks, and a short drive to Arlesey station for rail links into London and Gatwick.
Notable points to consider: the flat is leasehold (full lease details should be checked) and is an average-sized 527 sq ft apartment, suited to a single buyer or couple rather than a family needing extra space. Local crime statistics are higher than average for the wider area, which may affect security perceptions and insurance costs.
Overall this is a straightforward, low-maintenance apartment with rental potential (estimated £995–£1,050 pcm) and commuter convenience. It will particularly suit buyers wanting a compact home close to town amenities or investors seeking an easy-to-manage rental unit.
