Set on the sixth floor of a mid-century residential block, this chain-free two-bedroom apartment offers bright, open-plan living with long-range views towards London. Large tilt-and-turn double-glazed windows flood the living/dining/kitchen with light, while a modern fitted kitchen and a high-quality family bathroom limit immediate renovation needs.
Practical living is supported by on-site concierge, barrier-controlled residents’ parking and cycle/bin stores. The 241-year lease provides long-term security for buyers; broadband fibre is available and the property sits in a very low flood-risk area.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold with an annual service charge of around £2,240 and ground rent of £275. Heating and hot water run on electricity with room heaters, which may mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. Council Tax band E applies.
This apartment will suit first-time buyers looking for a low-maintenance home with good communal amenities, commuters seeking easy connections from Brentwood, or investors wanting a well-presented unit with straightforward upkeep. The location benefits from highly rated local schools and affluent surroundings, but check service charge details and any building restrictions before committing.
