This property is a 2 bedroom retirement property located on London Road in St Albans, Hertfordshire. The property benefits from being close to local amenities and transport links. St Albans City train station is approximately 1.08km away, providing convenient access to London and other parts of the UK. There are also several highly-rated schools within a reasonable distance, including Cunningham Hill Infant and Junior Schools (both rated Outstanding by Ofsted) and St Alban & St Stephen Catholic Primary School & Nursery (also rated Outstanding). The property itself appears to be in excellent condition, with modern fixtures and fittings throughout. The images show a well-maintained and tastefully decorated interior. The property includes a communal garden area, offering residents a pleasant outdoor space. While the plot size is relatively small, the communal garden compensates for this. The list price of £450,000 is slightly below the average price for the area (£617,618), and given the property’s condition and location, it could be considered good value, especially for a retirement property. However, comparing the price per sqft to the area average shows it to be significantly lower, which may indicate that it is a good value property. More information on the property’s specific size and features would be needed to definitively assess the value.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
