Roff Avenue, Bedford
OIRO £150,000
2 bedroom apartment for sale
Offered to the market with a tenant in situ, this spacious two-bedroom apartment represents an appealing opportunity for a buy-to-let investor seeking a well-located property within easy reach of Bedford town centre and its principal transport links.
The second floor apartment offers approximately 54.3 sq m (584 sq ft) of accommodation according to the floorplan and 58 sq m according to the EPC, with a particularly generous living area that provides ample space for both lounge and dining furniture. Large windows provide plenty of natural light and create a bright, open feel.
The separate kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units, worktop space and integrated cooking facilities, together with space and plumbing for further appliances.
There are two bedrooms, with the larger bedroom comfortably accommodating a double bed and additional furniture. The second bedroom provides useful flexibility and can equally serve as a guest room, children's bedroom or home office. The accommodation is completed by a bathroom and useful internal storage.
Location is a major attraction. Bedford mainline railway station is approximately 0.6 miles away, while Bedford Bus Station is approximately 0.4 miles away, making the property particularly convenient for commuters and tenants reliant on public transport. Bedford town centre is also within walking distance, providing a wide selection of shops, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and other everyday amenities. There are also local shops directly on Roff Avenue.
Bedford Park is close by, providing extensive green and recreational space, while Robinson Pools & Fitness is situated alongside the park and is only a few minutes' walk from Roff Avenue.
From an investment perspective, the apartment is currently tenanted and is being sold with the tenant in situ, offering the purchaser the potential benefit of an established tenancy rather than having to source a tenant following completion. The anticipated rental value is approximately £1,000 per calendar month / £12,000 per annum.
The lease information supplied indicates approximately 159 years remaining as at 30 June 2026, providing the property with a particularly healthy unexpired lease term. The supplied information also confirms no ground rent is payable. The service charge demand supplied shows an annual service charge of £1,085 for the period April 2026 to March 2027.
With its spacious living accommodation, two-bedroom layout, long lease and excellent proximity to Bedford's train station, bus station, town centre and Bedford Park, the property should appeal particularly to investors looking for a conveniently positioned and readily lettable Bedford apartment.
