Summary - 75A WHARF ROAD GRAYS RM17 5YX
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact commuter-friendly property with parking and garage.
Chain free two-bedroom flat, suitable for investors or small households
Step into a compact, chain-free two-bedroom flat set just a short walk from Grays town centre and the train station. Its location and direct C2C commuter links to London make it attractive for rental demand or a first buy-and-hold investment. The layout includes a large lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and a modern three-piece bathroom, providing straightforward appeal to tenants or buyers seeking convenience.
Practical extras include an allocated parking space and a private garage — a genuine local advantage — plus fast broadband and a very low flood risk. The building dates from the 1980s and the flat measures about 612 sq ft, so living space is compact but functional for couples, sharers or small families.
There are important ownership and running-cost factors to note. The property is leasehold with around 87 years remaining and an average service charge of about £2,600 per year; these affect mortgage options and long-term value and will need checking before purchase. Heating is via electric storage heaters, which can mean higher energy bills compared with gas-heated homes.
For an investor, the combination of strong transport links, nearby amenities and straightforward accommodation creates clear rental potential. For anyone considering occupancy, expect some dated elements and typical 1980s finishes — a modest programme of cosmetic updating would improve appeal and long-term value. Viewing is recommended to assess space, condition and lease details in person.
