Description

This ground floor one-bedroom flat represents a notable opportunity for renovation and investment. Located within an end-terrace building, the property is currently vacant and offers potential buyers the chance to shape it according to their vision. The flat features a reception room that merges with the kitchen, a cozy bedroom, and a bathroom, all of which are in need of modernization. Situated on a residential road near local shops and amenities, accessibility is enhanced with St Albans City rail station just a short distance away. Additionally, residents can enjoy the communal garden and parking facilities provided. With approximately 115 years remaining on the lease, this leasehold property is poised for transformation and could serve as an excellent investment in an area with promising rental yields.
