No chain, parking and communal gardens close to Romford station.
Share of freehold with 959 years remaining
This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment is offered with no onward chain and a share of freehold, making it an accessible purchase for first-time buyers. The long lease of 959 years, allocated off-street parking and communal gardens add practical value while the property’s location is a major plus — Romford station and town centre are within easy walking distance.
Internally the layout is simple and functional: separate kitchen, a sizeable reception room, double bedroom and bathroom. The flat has double glazing and laminate floors but requires modernisation throughout, offering scope to personalise and add value. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the current EPC rating is C.
Practical considerations are straightforward: an average annual service charge of approximately £1,386, affordable council tax banding, and excellent mobile signal. Broadband speeds are slow locally, and the flat dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s, so some updating to wiring or insulation may be needed.
Overall this is a budget-friendly, well-located starter home or rental investment with low immediate barriers to purchase. Buyers looking to add modern finishes and improve energy performance will find clear potential to increase appeal and value.
