A bright, upper‑floor two-bedroom apartment in the sought-after Drayton Garden Village development, just half a mile from West Drayton station. The open-plan kitchen/living/dining room opens onto a small balcony, giving a sense of space and outdoor access in an average-sized 684 sq ft home.
The accommodation is well presented with a stylish bathroom suite, modern finishes and gated parking — features that appeal to both first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors. The 117-year lease provides long-term security for buyers and the location serves commuters, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Buyers should note some practical considerations: the development has a relatively high service charge (around £2,000 p.a.) and a noticeable ground rent (£520 p.a.). The local area scores as deprived with above-average crime levels, and external communal space is small and paved rather than private garden.
Overall this apartment offers immediate move-in potential and strong rental/commuter appeal, but budget accordingly for ongoing service charges, ground rent and be comfortable with urban living conditions.
