This one-bedroom ground-floor flat on Bloomfield Avenue offers a straightforward, affordable entry into Luton’s housing market. The property is chain-free, comes with a long lease of approximately 104 years and low running charges, making it suitable for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking immediate occupancy or rental potential.
The layout is traditional and practical: entrance hall, separate kitchen, lounge, double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a shower room. Gas central heating, double glazing and communal gardens are functional positives. On-street parking is available and local transport links (Luton mainline and Parkway stations) are within easy reach.
The flat is being sold by Modern Auction. Important costs and conditions apply: an undisclosed reserve price, a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of purchase price, minimum £6,600) and buyer administration fees plus a Buyer Information Pack fee (up to £349). Prospective purchasers must complete identification and provide proof of funding; the sale timetable requires completion within 56 days.
The property shows signs of age and will benefit from updating — internal photos and descriptions note dated finishes, worn flooring and mid-century fixtures. The immediate area scores as deprived and local school performance is mixed; these factors may affect long-term capital growth. Buyers should carry out full due diligence, check the Buyer Information Pack and arrange surveys before bidding.
