This 67-year-remaining lease, two-bedroom second-floor apartment offers a bright, practical home close to local transport. The living room receives good natural light and modern wood-effect flooring gives a neat, low-maintenance finish throughout. Its compact 571 sq ft layout suits a first-time buyer seeking affordability or an investor after a straightforward rental unit.
Notable costs include an approximate annual service charge of £2,000 and council tax band C. The lease length is short enough that some mortgage lenders may refuse to lend; buyers should check finance options early. The building is a 1980s red-brick block with limited communal grounds and no private garden, so outside space is minimal.
The area is urban with excellent mobile and fast broadband, and the flat is within easy walking distance of Dagenham East and Dagenham Heathway stations. Local schools nearby have generally good Ofsted ratings. Crime levels are above average and the neighbourhood is classified as constrained and very deprived, which may affect long-term capital growth.
This property is offered chain-free and will suit a buyer who prioritises transport links and a low-maintenance interior, or a cash/investment purchaser able to manage the lease and service charge considerations. Cosmetic updating could increase appeal and rental value.
