This modern one-bedroom second-floor flat offers compact, practical living for a first-time buyer or commuter. The 467 sq ft open-plan living area is bright, with an extended lounge window overlooking a communal eco strip garden and fitted kitchen appliances including a dishwasher.
The building, constructed since 2012, includes a lift and an allocated off-street parking space, with visitor parking for guests. The property benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and fast broadband and mobile signal — useful for home working and staying connected.
Important practical points: the home is leasehold (987 years remaining) with a small ground rent of £150. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived with above-average local crime rates — factors to consider for resale and insurance. The flat is modest in size and best suited to someone seeking low-maintenance city living rather than large-family accommodation.
Local amenities include good primary and secondary schools nearby, bus links and a community centre. For a buyer prioritising convenience, contemporary finishes and commuter-friendly features, this property represents an affordable entry into Basildon’s housing market, but check personal security and suitability for long-term plans.
