"Spacious two bedroom apartment in sought-after Wigmore, Luton. Well-maintained, affordable charges, 900+ year lease. Perfect for buy-to-let or first-time buyers. Close to airport and train station."
Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom apartment in Garfield Court, Luton, presents a mixed bag of attributes. The property’s location in the Wigmore area of Luton offers several advantages. The proximity to highly-rated schools like Someries Infant and Junior Schools is a significant plus for families. Moreover, Luton Airport Parkway station provides convenient access to rail travel, and the area is generally well-served by local amenities. The interior of the apartment, as shown in the photographs, appears to be in good condition. The rooms are well-maintained and decorated, suggesting a move-in ready condition. The kitchen and bathroom seem modern and functional. However, the property’s limited outdoor space is a notable drawback. The lack of a garden or any significant private land is a common feature of apartment living, but it is a considerable limitation for those seeking outdoor space. The price of £200,000 is a key point of consideration. While the property’s location and condition are positive factors, the price point seems relatively high compared to other similar properties in the area. More information on leasehold details and associated service charges would be necessary for a more comprehensive evaluation. Overall, the property is suitable for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a conveniently located apartment in Luton, but the price should be carefully considered in relation to the available market data and the limited outdoor space.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
