Thieves Lane, Hertford, SG14

A modern first floor apartment with an extended lease, in a good location just a short walk from Hertford North station.

Overall Description

This is a modern first floor apartment in a good residential location just a short walk from local shops and Hertford North station. The apartment is in good order with a new kitchen fitted in 2016 and a new bathroom in 2023. It has gas central-heating and double-glazed windows and has been rented out with a current rental value of c. ?850 per month. The owners paid for a valuable lease extension in 2018 and the property now has around 180 years left on its lease with an annual service charge of just ?1,010 per annum, which is lower than many apartments in the town. This apartment is being sold with no forward chain and viewing is highly recommended. The tenant is moving out at the end of January and we have an Open Day organised for 10am to 11am on Saturday 3rd February - please call to book an appointment. PLEASE NOTE: this is a modern flat and the reason we don't have internal pictures yet is that it is tenanted - we will add them when it is empty!
