Bright, roomy and recently renovated, this two-bedroom second-floor flat sits in the heart of Bedford town centre. At about 1,055 sq ft it offers unusually generous living space for a central apartment, including an open-plan living/kitchen, main bedroom with dressing area and en suite, a second bedroom, family bathroom, utility room and good built-in storage. Lift access and an allocated off-street parking space in a secure rear car park add practical convenience.
The conversion from an office building in 2017 means modern construction standards and double glazing throughout. The property is well placed for shops, restaurants and Bedford rail station (fast links to London St Pancras), making it a sensible choice for commuters or professionals. The flat is presented in excellent decorative order and is ready to move into.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with around 122 years remaining; annual service charge is £1,377 and ground rent £250. Heating is by electric room heaters and the building’s main fuel is electricity, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow locally, which may affect homeworking or streaming without alternative connectivity solutions.
This property will suit a first-time buyer or professional couple seeking central convenience and low maintenance living, and it also has clear buy-to-let potential given proximity to transport and town amenities. There is no private outdoor space, so consider whether town-centre living without a garden meets your needs.
