Summary - 152 CHELMSFORD AVENUE, ROMFORD RM5 3XH
2 bed 1 bath Ground Maisonette
Chain-free 2-bed maisonette with garden and parking — requires renovation and lease renewal..
Chain free, two double bedrooms and separate lounge
A chain-free, two-bedroom ground-floor maisonette with private rear garden and off-street parking, offered as a renovation project. At about 709 sq ft the layout is traditional and practical: two double bedrooms, a separate lounge, kitchen and bathroom — space many new buyers find rare at this price point.
The property needs updating throughout (1970s kitchen, dated finishes) but presents clear potential to add value and personalise. Practical positives include mains gas central heating, double glazing, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. It sits 0.8 miles from Clockhouse Primary (Outstanding) and close to parks and local amenities, useful for young families.
Important practical matters: the flat is leasehold with around 81–82 years remaining — this will require renewal soon and could affect mortgage availability and costs. Service charge and ground rent are low (£835 p.a. service charge; £10 ground rent – both to be confirmed). The wider area is classified as deprived/hampered neighbourhoods; crime is average.
This home will suit a first-time buyer or hands-on investor prepared for refurbishment. If you’re seeking a live-in project with parking, a garden and good schools nearby, this maisonette offers a realistic entry into the market, but plan for lease extension and renovation costs.
