Top-floor one-bedroom apartment in Victorian townhouse
This top-floor one-bedroom apartment sits in a Victorian townhouse on Ampthill Road, a short walk from Bedford Hospital and the train station — convenient for commuters and local amenities. The flat offers a bright lounge with high ceilings, a compact kitchen-diner, a generous double bedroom and access to a communal garden plus an allocated off-street parking space.
The property is sold by Modern Auction; buyers should note a non-refundable reservation fee and buyer’s fees apply. The lease has about 62 years remaining and lenders may refuse mortgages without specialist underwriting; purchasers must check finance options carefully. Service charge and ground rent are payable (approx. £1,350 pa service charge; £200 ground rent).
This apartment suits first-time buyers seeking affordable town-centre living or buy-to-let investors after a centrally located, lettable unit. The building retains period character externally, while internal decoration is neutral and largely ready to move into. Be aware the surrounding area records higher crime levels and is in a very deprived ward, which may affect resale and letting prospects.
Viewings and full due diligence are advised. Auction sale terms require completion within the stated timeframe and payment of associated auction costs; read the buyer information pack and confirm total fees before bidding.
