Property Description

A fantastically presented, recently renovated two-bedroom ground floor apartment, ideally situated near Hitchin train station (0.1 miles away) and within easy walking distance of Hitchin town centre (0.5 miles away).

The property offers modern, well-proportioned accommodation, which includes a brand-new open-plan kitchen that flows directly into a large living area, providing a bright and sociable space. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, while the second bedroom is served by the main bathroom. The vendor’s recent renovation also includes new flooring throughout all rooms.

Externally, the apartment benefits from being nicely nestled in the most private corner of the larger apartment development, providing a more private, south-facing outside decking area, along with access to a communal garden.

Further benefits include secure underground allocated parking, which includes one visitor space in addition to the permanent resident parking.

This flat offers an excellent opportunity for commuters, with Hitchin train station approximately 0.1 miles away, a two-minute walk. Hitchin town centre is approximately 0.5 miles away, an 11-minute walk, with both distances as per Google Maps.

We have also been advised by the vendor that the original lease was significantly extended in 2024 to a term of 215 years. The property therefore has approximately 212 years remaining on the lease. As part of this favourable contractual amendment, the ground rent is now peppercorn. The current service charge is £226.89 per month (£2,722.68 per annum), which includes the property’s water charge.

The property would make an excellent first-time purchase, investment or home for a professional couple.

Hitchin is a charming medieval market town and has many fine Tudor and Georgian buildings, particularly around the market square. Near to the market square stands the large medieval parish church of St Mary. The town provides good shopping as well as a swimming pool, football team, two theatres, a wide variety of restaurants and pubs and highly regarded girls’ and boys’ schools. There is also a mainline railway station providing direct access to Kings Cross and Cambridge.
