2 bed maisonette to rent

Hitchin Road, Luton, Bedfordshire LU2

Hitchin Road, Stopsley: Quiet village feel on the edge of the countryside

Ask anyone who knows Luton where they'd choose to live, and Stopsley is almost always near the top of the list. Known for its strong community feel, excellent local schools, and a high proportion of owner-occupied homes, it offers a quieter, more settled pace of life away from the bustle of the town centre.

Fresh to the rental market, this two-bedroom first-floor maisonette-set within a small, quiet block of just four-delivers a clean, comfortable, and low-maintenance home right on the edge of the Hertfordshire border.

The Space

Because you're on the first floor, the home feels private, bright, and secure. The heart of the property is a generous lounge-diner that gives you plenty of space for both a proper sofa setup and a dining table.

Leading off the living space is a sleek, modern kitchen equipped with smart fitted cabinetry and clean lines. Accommodation includes a main double bedroom and a second comfortable single-ideal as a guest room, dressing area, or a dedicated home office. A clean, contemporary shower room serves the home.

Outside & Practicalities

Unlike many first-floor properties that miss out on outdoor space, this maisonette includes its own private rear garden. Accessed via a path through the ground-floor garden, it gives you a dedicated, separate green patch of your own for summer evenings and weekend air.

The Location

You are just a 5-minute walk from the heart of Stopsley village, putting local shops, bakeries, cafes, and daily conveniences right on your doorstep.

For commuters, the location is a massive win. You can take a 20-to-25-minute stroll straight down to Luton Mainline Station, where fast trains reach central London in just 20 minutes. If you work further afield or travel often, you're perfectly positioned with quick access to London Luton Airport as well as easy driving routes to both the M1 and A1(M) motorways. Plus, you sit right on the corridor heading out toward Hitchin, Harpenden, and the surrounding countryside when you want to escape at the weekend.

Is this the right fit for you?

While all applications are welcome, we want you to truly love living here, so let's be real about the fit.

This maisonette is an ideal match for a Single occupant preferred, a couple looking for a second room for home working, or a small family with one child. Because of the first-floor layout and bedroom proportions, households with more than two adults or larger families may find the footprint a little restrictive for day-to-day living.

The Practical Bit: Affordability & Peace of Mind

To ensure this home is a comfortable fit for your budget, we look for a combined household income of at least £42,000 per year (calculated at 2.5x the annual rent of £1,400 pcm).

We know that life isn't always a straight line; if you have a small shortfall on that figure, we can still move forward with a guarantor. To keep things secure, we ask that the guarantor is a home-owning relative based in the UK, with an annual income of at least £58,800 (3.5x the annual rent).
