Compact city apartment near shops and transport, ideal for first-time buyers.
Two bedrooms in a compact 553 sq ft layout
This compact two-bedroom apartment offers contemporary, low-maintenance living within easy reach of Romford town centre and transport links. The open-plan living and kitchen area creates a bright social space, and both bedrooms receive good natural light. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit home-working or streaming.
Practical details favour buyers seeking a straightforward leasehold purchase: 115 years remain on the lease, and main heating is electric boiler with radiators. Communal security includes a phone-entry system for added peace of mind. Local amenities — shops, leisure and transport — are a short walk away.
Be clear about running costs and context: the service charge is around £1,900 annually with a £300 ground rent, and the area records very high crime rates. The flat is small (553 sq ft) and will suit buyers comfortable with compact city living rather than those needing extensive space. Overall, this is a sensible option for first-time buyers or investors prioritising location and connectivity, provided they accept the service charges and local safety considerations.
