A one-bedroom ground-floor apartment with a private front door and a long lease offers straightforward ownership and strong rental appeal. The property sits in Hoddesdon town centre close to shops, transport links and amenities, making it easy to let or occupy for convenience.
Inside, the apartment feels roomy for its footprint thanks to a generous lounge/diner and a double-aspect bedroom. The kitchen includes integrated appliances and the bathroom has a tiled shower cubicle; recent double glazing and gas central heating add practical efficiency. The long lease (978 years) removes a common leasehold worry and the flat is offered chain free.
Buyers should note the service charge (£1,301 pa) and modest ground rent (£100 pa) when assessing running costs. The local area records higher-than-average crime levels, which may affect tenant demand and insurance costs. Ceiling heights in parts of the flat are low and some fixtures and services have not been tested, so a buyer should commission their own checks.
Overall this is a convenient, low-maintenance apartment suitable for an investor seeking a town-centre let or a buyer wanting easy access to amenities. The property presents opportunities to update cosmetic finishes and maximise rental income, but factor in service charges, local area considerations and any required maintenance before purchase.
