Affordable, low-maintenance flat close to transport and local schools.
Freehold apartment with very long lease term stated (959 years)
Guide price £210,000–£220,000. This compact one-bedroom apartment offers an affordable, low-maintenance home within walking distance of Romford station. Set in a 1980s brick building, the flat includes a double bedroom, bathroom, lounge with compact kitchen area, and allocated off-street parking — practical essentials for a first purchase or buy-to-let starter.
The property is freehold with a very long lease term stated (959 years) and measures approximately 420 sq ft, so it suits buyers seeking a small, manageable space. Heating is by electric room heaters and the windows are double glazed (installed post-2002), which keeps running costs simple but may be less efficient than modern central heating systems. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are strong in the area.
The interior is neat but basic and would benefit from cosmetic updating to maximise rental income or personal comfort. There are good local schools rated ‘Good’ nearby and straightforward access to bus routes and Romford station, making daily commutes and amenities easy. No flood risk is recorded and local crime levels are average.
