Essex House on Victoria Street consists of four luxury one and two bedroom apartments, a two-bed penthouse and a three-bed townhouse.

Marketed by Aitchisons, the development will launch on Saturday, May 4 between 10am and 4pm.

Formerly an office building, Essex House has been rebuilt and finished to a high specification by St Albans-based Catton Homes.

The properties include luxury kitchens by Kosmic Joinery, Siemens appliances, gas central heating, Porcelanosa wood laminate throughout the living rooms and kitchens and carpets to the bedrooms.

Private allocated parking is provided in a gated car park to the rear.

One of the properties, a one-bed apartment on the first floor, has already been reserved off plan.

Prices start at £365,000 for the one-bed ground floor apartment, rising to offers in the region of £650,000 for the penthouse. The townhouse has a guide price of £900,000.

Linda Downes, Aitchisons’ senior new homes sales negotiator, said: “With one apartment already reserved off plan we are expecting a high level of interest at the launch – and with appointments filling fast, booking is advisable.”
