The property is a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment located at Old Lyndale School, 3, Hillside Road, St. Albans, AL1 3QZ. The list price is £500,000, and the apartment has 915 square feet of living space. The property benefits from a convenient location, with St Albans City train station being only 0.59km away, offering excellent transport links. Several highly-rated schools are also within a short distance, including Maple Primary School (Good Ofsted rating) and Loreto College (Outstanding Ofsted rating). This makes the property attractive to families. The interior photos show a recently refurbished apartment, which appears to be in excellent condition. The kitchen and bathrooms are modern and well-maintained. The flooring is also modern, and the rooms are well-lit and spacious. The property benefits from a small, well-maintained garden area. Considering the average house price in the area is £793,999 and the average price per square foot is £825, the asking price of £500,000 for this 915 sqft apartment seems reasonable, especially given its excellent condition and convenient location. However, it’s worth noting that the lack of plot size may affect the overall value for some buyers. The nearby listings show similar apartments selling for between £350,000 and £450,000, but these properties may require refurbishment, impacting their overall 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. *
