A compact one-bedroom flat above a local shopping parade, offered chain-free and with a very long lease (circa 984 years). The open-plan lounge/kitchen and modern shower room give a contemporary feel within a 1930s mid-terrace building, making this an affordable entry into the area.
Practical benefits include double glazing, gas central heating on a boiler-and-radiator system, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The property’s layout and size (around 433 sq ft) suit a single buyer or couple seeking a low-maintenance first home, or an investor after a straightforward buy-to-let opportunity.
Buyers should note the flat’s small overall footprint and its position above shops, which can bring daytime activity and some noise. The building has solid brick walls typical of its era with assumed limited cavity insulation, so heating efficiency may be lower than modern builds. Crime levels in the area are above average—worth considering for personal security or rental appeal.
With easy access to local shops and nearby transport (including Northolt’s Central Line), the flat offers convenience and strong connectivity. Its modest council tax and long lease are practical advantages; some cosmetic updates could increase comfort and rental value.
