Summary - 304, Lodge Avenue RM8 2HF
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Long-lease top-floor flat with parking, balcony and nearby transport links.
Top-floor two-bedroom flat, approx 593 sq ft
A well-presented top-floor two-bedroom flat offering a long lease and private parking in RM8. The living space is compact but arranged for practical daily use, with a small modern balcony and contemporary finishes throughout. At about 593 sq ft, the property suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a ready-to-move-in home with rental potential.
Location is a clear strength: shops, bus stops and train links are within walking distance, with A13 access nearby and several good primary and secondary schools close by. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are reported as strong, supporting home working and digital needs. The building dates from the 1950–1966 era and has double glazing installed before 2002.
Buyers should note some material points: the service charge is relatively high at about £1,902 per year and ground rent is £10 (amount/terms unknown). The wider area is classified as very deprived and recorded crime levels are above average, which may affect long-term resale or letting values. Construction includes solid brick walls assumed to have no cavity insulation, which could mean higher heating costs and future improvement work.
Overall this flat offers an accessible entry into the local market with practical benefits—long lease, parking and transport links—balanced by communal costs and local area challenges. It will particularly suit purchasers who prioritise commuter convenience and a move-in-ready interior, and those prepared to manage or budget for longer-term energy and neighbourhood considerations.
