Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom apartment located on Bedford’s prestigious Embankment offers a unique opportunity for buyers seeking a riverside location. The property’s position provides stunning views of the River Great Ouse and surrounding parkland. The apartment is within walking distance of several well-regarded schools, including the outstanding Castle Newnham School. Access to Bedford’s town centre and rail links is also convenient. The property itself is a standard two-bedroom apartment featuring a living/dining area, a kitchen with integrated appliances and a bathroom. A particular benefit of this property is the availability of a garage.
However, potential buyers should note that the interior photos reveal a dated interior that is in need of modernisation. The kitchen, bathroom and décor are old-fashioned, and upgrading would likely increase the property’s value and desirability. While there is a communal garden area, this is limited and not equivalent to a private garden. Therefore, any prospective purchaser should budget for refurbishment and factor this into their offer. The apartment’s price relative to the market in this specific area is in line with the condition of the property and the lack of additional land. The apartment would benefit from modernising to reflect the high quality of the location.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
