About this home

Enjoying uninterrupted views across the River Stort, a peaceful and tucked-away setting, and a location just six minutes' walk from Bishop's Stortford railway station, this beautifully presented two-bedroom apartment offers an excellent combination of riverside living and town centre convenience. Situated on the second floor of the sought-after River View development, built by Weston Homes to a high specification, the apartment occupies a particularly appealing position, set away from the main roads whilst remaining within easy walking distance of the town's shops, restaurants, amenities and excellent transport connections. Stepping inside, a generous entrance hall welcomes you into the property. The impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space forms the true heart of the home, having been further improved by the current owners with contemporary flooring, spotlight lighting and a sleek fitted kitchen.

Full-height sliding doors open directly onto a private balcony, perfectly positioned to make the most of the beautiful, uninterrupted views across the River Stort. It's a wonderfully peaceful setting, whether enjoying a morning coffee or relaxing in the evening, and offers a lovely contrast to the convenience of having everything so close by. The apartment provides two excellent double bedrooms, both enjoying views over the water. The principal bedroom benefits from a stylish en-suite shower room with high-quality fittings, a touch-screen mirror and ambient mood lighting, while the second bedroom is served by a contemporary family bathroom finished to the same high standard. Externally, the property benefits from allocated covered parking, a particularly valuable feature in such a central location. The development itself enjoys a private, tucked-away position away from the main thoroughfares, providing a pleasant sense of tranquillity despite its proximity to the town centre. The apartment also benefits from relatively low energy costs, with the current owner reporting household energy bills of approximately £50 per month, based on their current usage and tariff. From the vendor's understanding, the lease has approximately 118 years remaining, with the current service charge payments being approximately £149 per month and ground rent of £350 per annum. Service charges are subject to variation and confirmation. Location One of the property's greatest advantages is its excellent position within Bishop's Stortford. The mainline railway station is approximately a six-minute walk away, providing direct connections to London Liverpool Street, Cambridge and Stansted Airport. The town centre is also just a short stroll away, offering a fantastic selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and everyday amenities. Despite this convenience, River View feels pleasantly removed from the hustle and bustle, enjoying a quiet riverside setting away from the main roads. Bishop's Stortford is a thriving historic market town surrounded by beautiful Hertfordshire countryside, offering excellent schooling, transport connections and a strong sense of community. Combining beautifully presented accommodation, attractive riverside views, covered parking and an exceptionally convenient yet peaceful location, this is a fantastic opportunity for those looking to enjoy everything Bishop's Stortford has to offer.
