At time of purchase condition

This property is a one bedroom flat in a highly sought-after location in the market town of Biggleswade which is currently undergoing intense development and regeneration plans. The property is very conveniently located: fast transport link (29 minutes non-stop trains) to London Kings Cross (train station within 6 minutes walk), town square with main bus station within 5 minutes walk, large supermarket within a couple of minute walking distance and high street with local amenities (including banks, pharmacies, pubs and restaurant as well as a plethora of local shops and a local market twice per week) within three minutes walking distance. The property has great period features, including high ceiling and very large windows. It consists of an entrance hall, a corridor, one sitting room, one storage room, one kitchen, a bathroom, one bedroom, parking for one car plus visitor parking and outside communal space. It is in overall good state and needs some cosmetic work and some extra fixture to entice the rental customer.

Refurbishment plan

Given the good state of repair, the flat did not need much work, the walls were painted in white to give a fresh and more enticing feel, the nook in the corridor was transformed into a practical study area with loads of storage. The bedroom door was re-designed into a trendy sliding door to save space, allow to move the bed away from wall, and give the room more character, the old fashion fascia of tiles in bathroom was replaced with a modern white tile to refresh the look, and the kitchen saw a change in the cupboard handles and floor colour to better suit the whole scheme. Refurbishment quote was estimated to be £3,000.
