Set on the first floor just moments from Hitchin town centre and the mainline station, this two-bedroom apartment offers straightforward, low-maintenance living for a first-time buyer or investor. The open-plan living area opens onto a Juliet balcony that brings in light, while the integrated kitchen keeps the space practical and contemporary.
The principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite shower room and there is a main bathroom serving the second double bedroom. Secure allocated underground parking and a video entry intercom add convenience and a degree of privacy uncommon for town-centre flats. The property is chain-free and ready for a swift purchase.
Practical considerations include the leasehold tenure (105 years remaining) and electric storage heating, which can be less efficient and may increase running costs compared with gas central heating. The local recorded crime level is high for the area, so buyers should take that into account when assessing personal security and insurance costs.
Built in the early 1990s with double glazing and cavity walls, the apartment is in good decorative order and will suit buyers seeking a central, low-upkeep home or a rental property with strong commuter appeal. The town-centre location places shops, cafés, schools and transport links within easy walking distance.
