A compact, modern two-bedroom apartment in the Fifth Avenue development, suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property offers an open-plan lounge/kitchen and a small balcony overlooking communal grounds, plus allocated off-street parking — convenient for commuters and hospital staff.
Practicalities are straightforward: 137 years remaining on the lease, EPC Band C, Council Tax Band C and an estimated rental income of around £1,400 pcm. The apartment is gas‑heated via boiler and radiators, double glazed and constructed post‑2007, so it benefits from relatively modern building standards.
Buyers should note the ongoing costs: an annual service charge of approximately £1,500 and ground rent of £500. The apartment is small at about 544 sq ft, which limits storage and living space. The area records very high crime levels, so consider local security and insurance implications.
Location is a key strength — short walks to Princess Alexandra Hospital, Harlow town centre, supermarket and the train station, plus adjacent parkland. Lease details and service figures were provided by the seller and should be verified by your solicitor before purchase.
