Long lease and two parking spaces, ideal for a first-time buy or rental income.
Chain-free top-floor two-bedroom flat within 0.6 miles of Elizabeth Line station
This top-floor two-bedroom flat offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase close to Romford town centre and the Elizabeth Line. The apartment benefits from a very long 963-year lease, two allocated off-street parking spaces and easy access to Queens Hospital, shops and regular transport links — helpful for commuting or rental demand.
Accommodation is compact at around 534 sq ft and arranged in a traditional layout: entrance hall, fitted kitchen, living room, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The flat is suited to a first-time buyer seeking an affordable entry into the area or an investor wanting a lettable property near major transport and local amenities.
Running costs include a service charge of approximately £1,440 per year and a small ground rent of £50. The immediate area has higher than average crime statistics and shows signs of local deprivation; buyers should factor neighbourhood context and commute convenience into their decision.
Overall, this is a practical purchase for someone prioritising transport links, long lease security and parking. The flat’s size and location set clear expectations: good value for central access, but limited space and some local area challenges.
