This compact three-bedroom maisonette sits across two floors and is sold with the freehold, making it a straightforward purchase for first-time buyers or investors. The open-plan reception and modern fitted kitchen create a bright living area leading to a private south-facing rear garden — a rare outside space for a central terraced property.
The property is small (approximately 388 sqft) and has electric room heaters rather than gas central heating; solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, so expect higher running costs and potential retrofit work. On-street parking is available, but there is no allocated space. The building dates from the early 20th century and shows period features; some ongoing maintenance or updating may be required.
Transport links are a strong selling point, with Watford High Street and Watford Junction within easy reach and quick access to the M1 and A41. The location places the property close to well-regarded schools and local amenities, which supports either owner-occupation or rental demand. Note the area records very high crime levels — buyers should research local security and insurance implications.
Sold with no upper chain and offered at an accessible price point, this property suits a buyer willing to accept modest internal space in exchange for freehold ownership, a garden and excellent connectivity. Investors should factor in refurbishment and heating upgrades when calculating returns.
