Langton Lane townhome a great buy at $355k!
There was a time when $400,000 wouldn’t buy you anything on the Bermuda property market.But these days there are more than a few decent properties in that price range.This lovely Langton Lane, Pembroke townhouse is within easy walking distance of Hamilton and in a peaceful garden setting with a view of North Shore.It is small, with two bedrooms and one bathroom, and in need of some upgrading, but with the right remodelling it could be a perfect place to call home for working professionals, retirees or a young family.Listed with Crisson & Company at an asking price of $355,000, the townhouse is up the hill from St John’s Church and the Governor’s mansion in the professionally managed and well-maintained Langton Apartments.The community is a mid-sized complex of 22 units spread over almost two acres of grounds, which include a wild orange tree, Bermuda cedars, avocado, loquats and palms.Landscaping is part of the maintenance fee and there is ample parking.The ground level of the total 800-square-foot unit has a small kitchen with plenty of storage space in the cabinets.A combined dining/living room leads to a patio overlooking the ground and waters of North Shore. You are allowed to have your BBQ on the uncovered patio.A staircase leads to the upper level master bedroom (12’ by 12’) and second bedroom (12’ by 9’) with a loft area which is ideal for extra storage.The full bath is in the hallway and is a good size for remodelling.All in all, if you can make do with a smaller space, this home is an excellent opportunity for the first-time buyer especially.Another attractive feature of the development, which is managed by Crisson’s, is a coin-operated laundry room on site.The monthly maintenance fee is $550. Each block of units has its own large water tank.For more information contact Jennifer Benevides or Herb Crisson at 295-0826 or crissonco@crissonrealestate.com.
