Light-filled first-floor apartment in a popular Waratah Drive development, a short walk (approx. 0.5 miles) from Elmstead Woods station. The open-plan kitchen/living room with integrated appliances and a breakfast bar gives a contemporary, easy-care feel while the lounge's Juliet balcony overlooks well-kept communal grounds and trees.
Accommodation includes two double bedrooms and a modern family bathroom, arranged sensibly for everyday living or rental layout. Local schools rated well and Chislehurst High Street’s shops and cafés are close by, making the location particularly convenient for first-time buyers and long-term tenants.
Practical points are straightforward: an allocated off-street parking space, a bike shed and a long lease (113 years) provide security. However this is a leasehold flat with an average-sized footprint for the area, a service charge of around £3,000pa and a small ground rent (£100pa). Council tax is above average — factor these running costs into affordability calculations.
Overall, the property offers move-in-ready presentation and good transport links for central London commuting. It suits buyers seeking a low-maintenance home or landlords targeting reliable rental demand, provided they are comfortable with the leasehold costs and average internal size.
