This top-floor, chain-free apartment in Coopers Yard offers low-maintenance town-centre living with practical space and secure parking. The open-plan living area and modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances provide a comfortable, contemporary home suited to first-time buyers or professionals. Two double bedrooms include fitted wardrobes; the principal bedroom benefits from an en suite and there is a separate bathroom.
The flat extends to approximately 706 sq ft (65.6 sq m) and sits within a purpose-built, red-brick block with a small communal courtyard. The building has a lift and the purchase includes an allocated underground parking space — a notable advantage for central locations. The property is about one mile from the train station and within easy walking distance of Hitchin’s Market Square, shops and cafes.
Important practical facts: the tenure is leasehold with 108 years remaining, an EPC rating of D, an annual service charge around £2,131 and ground rent circa £300 per year. There is no private garden; external space is limited to shared paved courtyard. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent.
Material drawbacks are stated plainly: the area records very high crime levels, which may influence mortgage options, insurance costs or suitability for some buyers. The property is mid-2000s stock and while presented in good condition, buyers should allow for normal wear and potential updating to meet individual tastes or higher energy standards.
