A compact first-floor apartment on a prestigious tree-lined road, offered with no onward chain and within easy walking distance of Bedford town centre. The living room and adjoining kitchen provide adaptable space for a single occupant or rental market; the property includes one bedroom, a three-piece bathroom, and access to the building’s garden.
Positioned close to the mainline station and town amenities, the flat benefits from consistent rental demand from nearby students and young professionals. The building dates from the early 20th century and retains period character externally, while the interior presents as standard modern condition but is small in size at about 430 sq ft.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with 97 years remaining; the structure is timber frame with assumed lack of insulation; double glazing is present but installation date is unknown. The area is classified as a student communal neighbourhood and is in a deprived area, which supports rental demand but may mean higher turnover and local issues to consider.
This apartment will suit an investor seeking a low-entry purchase near transport links or a first-time buyer wanting a city-base close to shops, parks and schools. Buyers should verify service, management and EPC details, and allow budget for potential refurbishment, insulation work and routine checks on services and heating.
