Property Oracle says ..
This one-bedroom, first-floor apartment situated on Roundwood Lane, Harpenden, is part of a secure retirement development. The property boasts a dual-aspect lounge, open-plan kitchen, and shower room. It’s located conveniently close to the high street and benefits from its proximity to Roundwood Primary School and other schools. The interior is presented in a clean, if somewhat basic condition. While the apartment itself is relatively small (579.10 sqft), it benefits from a communal garden shared with other residents in the development. The property does not come with a private garden. The price of £135,000 places this property in line with other similar properties on Roundwood Lane and in surrounding areas. However, the comparative data for properties is not complete. The absence of details relating to the average price per square foot on Roundwood Lane itself hinders a more precise evaluation of the property’s value. Given its location within a retirement development, the target market may be more limited than a more standard property on the street. Overall, it presents a reasonable option for an older buyer seeking a low-maintenance property in a convenient location. However buyers should be aware the property is in a retirement community.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
