Renovated for the Owner — Not for Resale

The apartment was renovated as the owner's own home, rather than cosmetically refurbished in preparation for sale. The work focused on durability, quality materials and practical everyday use, with investment made not only in the visible finishes but also in the property's infrastructure.

Improvements include renewed electrical wiring and fuse boxes, renewed plumbing, upgraded heating, an Ariston hot water system, UPVC double glazing, solid natural oak flooring imported from Slovenia, a bespoke kitchen, a renovated bathroom and professionally fitted and bespoke storage.

For the incoming owner, the benefit is simple: The principal improvement work has already been completed and paid for.

Bespoke Kitchen

The kitchen was individually designed and made to fit the apartment rather than assembled from standard off-the-shelf units. It includes bespoke cabinetry, water-resistant mdf units made to measure for antique solid oak doors, solid wood worktops, a high-specification Stoves cooker, a powerful extraction system, an under-sink water filtration system and a fitted dishwasher.

This is a practical, individually specified kitchen built with quality materials and designed for everyday use.

Private-Use Garden

One of the property's strongest advantages is the enclosed garden immediately adjoining the apartment. The garden forms part of the communal grounds, and the current owner holds written permission from the management company for private use of the enclosed area. Patio doors from Bedroom Two provide direct access, creating usable outdoor space for seating, dining and gardening — a significant additional benefit for a centrally located apartment. Access is provided when required for relevant building maintenance or services. Written confirmation of the private-use arrangement is available.

Heating, Hot Water and Infrastructure

The apartment is fitted with Premier programmable electric radiators, including models from the company's natural stone range. Programmable controls allow heating times to be managed around the occupier's routine. Hot water is provided by an Ariston system. The electrical wiring and fuse boxes have been upgraded and the plumbing renewed. The apartment also benefits from UPVC double glazing throughout.

Bathroom, Bedrooms and Storage

The bathroom includes a freestanding roll-top bath, Victoria Plumbing fittings and quality tiles imported from Poland. The principal bedroom benefits from full-height windows and a professionally fitted Hammonds wardrobe. Bedroom Two can be used as a bedroom, guest room or home office and includes bespoke handmade shelving and fitted storage, together with patio doors providing direct access to the garden. A separate laundry area provides dedicated space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, keeping both appliances outside the kitchen and principal living areas.

The Work Has Already Been Done

For buyers comparing two-bedroom apartments in Dunstable, the value here is not simply in how the property looks. The electrics, plumbing, heating, hot water system, kitchen, bathroom, flooring and storage have already been upgraded. Natural materials, bespoke elements and recognised brands have been used throughout. Add an enclosed garden with written management company permission for private use, parking, ground-floor access, a 114-year lease and a service charge of approximately £715 per year, and the apartment offers a combination of features that is difficult to replicate. For a buyer looking for a home rather than a renovation project, the work has been done and the major renovation costs have already been incurred. The quality of the specification, bespoke kitchen and private-use garden need to be seen in person. Viewing is highly recommended.
