Two double bedrooms, main bedroom approx. 19ft
A bright two-double-bedroom ground-floor apartment set on the River Great Ouse, ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The open-plan 19ft living/dining room with integrated kitchen and large patio doors floods the home with light and opens onto a sizable communal riverside patio.

Practical running costs include an annual service charge of approximately £2,054.94 and a small ground rent of about £172.50. The property is heated by electric room heaters and is EPC rated D, which may mean higher running costs than gas-heated alternatives. Council Tax sits at Band C.
Leasehold security is excellent — circa 989–990 years remaining — and the apartment’s compact 641 sq ft layout is efficient for everyday living or rental letting. Proximity to Bedford Hospital, the town centre and the station makes commuting straightforward and supports strong rental demand. Expect straightforward modern decor, laminate flooring and well-kept communal spaces.
Buyers should note the flat is average-sized and uses electric heating; those seeking lower energy bills or larger accommodation may prefer other options. For investors, the location and tenant demand from nearby hospital staff give reliable lettability, with a projected rental of around £1,200 pcm.
