Summary - 10 Balfour House, 50 Guildford Street LU1 2PA
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Well-presented apartment with lift, long lease and strong transport links.
Chain free one-bedroom apartment in town centre location
A compact one-bedroom apartment in the heart of Luton town centre, offered chain free and ready to move into. The flat sits in a period building with high ceilings and large windows that flood the main living space with daylight. At around 559 sq ft the layout is an average-sized one-bedroom, suitable for a first-time buyer or commuter seeking a low-hassle city base.
Practical details support long-term use: the lease has 102 years remaining, there is a lift in the block, and the property is presented in good condition. Monthly service charges are £200 and ground rent is £200 per year. Heating is electric storage heaters — economical if managed carefully, but not as efficient as gas central heating.
Location is a major draw: immediate access to shops, eateries, transport links and town-centre amenities. The surrounding neighbourhood is a cosmopolitan, student-focused area, which brings excellent rental and commuter demand but can mean higher daytime and evening activity levels. The building’s Victorian exterior and high ceilings add period character, while internal finishes are modern and neutral.
This apartment suits a buyer wanting an easy, central lifestyle or an investor seeking a straightforward, chain-free purchase with immediate let potential. Take into account the service charge, electric heating type, and the lively local area when comparing options.
