Step through your own front door into this ground-floor two-bedroom maisonette in First Court, SS16 — a practical, affordable home for first-time buyers or those seeking a straightforward downsize.

The property is offered with an 88-year lease, a below-average service charge (£920 p.a.) and a small ground rent (£100 p.a.), making running costs predictable. There is no central heating system installed; electric heaters are assumed, so budgeting for a heating upgrade should be considered.

The wider area is classified as deprived with mixed socio-economic indicators; crime is average. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, useful for home working or streaming.
For buyers willing to invest small to medium works (kitchen refresh, heating upgrade), this maisonette offers sensible value at the guide price. It’s a low-maintenance layout with private outdoor space and parking, suited to first-time purchasers or a buy-to-let investor aware of the remaining lease term.
