Well-presented ground-floor flat with long lease and low service charges, close to schools and transport.
Ground-floor two-bedroom flat, approx. 784 sq ft
A well-presented ground-floor two-bedroom flat offering practical living space ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The apartment features a modern style fitted kitchen/diner, a large 17'6" reception room and separate WC — all arranged on one level for ease of access. Gas central heating and double glazing help keep running costs moderate; the EPC is C.
The long lease (approx. 170 years), modest annual service charge (£900) and low ground rent (£150) make the tenure straightforward and buyer-friendly. At 784 sq ft the layout feels roomy for a 1950s purpose-built block, with a contemporary kitchen and bright reception that will suit everyday living and entertaining.
Location is a genuine asset: close to several well-rated primary and secondary schools, local shops on Chigwell and Manor Roads, Chigwell Golf Club and bus routes linking to Chigwell (Central Line) for city access. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and streaming.
Notable points to consider: the building dates from the 1950s–60s and walls are likely solid brick with no added insulation, which could mean higher heating demands in winter despite warm-air gas central heating. The local area is classified as deprived, and while crime is average, buyers should satisfy themselves about neighbourhood suitability. The property has one bathroom plus a separate WC rather than two full bathrooms.
Overall this is a practical, reasonably priced ground-floor flat with a long lease and low ongoing costs that will appeal to first-time buyers seeking space and transport links or investors seeking a straightforward rental proposition.
