This chain-free apartment in Burnham Gate offers a compact, modern starter home or buy-to-let close to key transport links. The building, constructed c.1996–2002, sits within communal gardens and includes an allocated off-street parking space — handy for commuters using Burnham station and the nearby M4/A4.
The flat benefits from double glazing, a long lease (approx. 165 years) and fast broadband, set in a generally affluent, low-crime neighbourhood with good local schools. Its compact footprint (about 344 sq ft) makes it well suited to a single occupant or couple, or as an investment unit for private renting.
Important practical points: heating is by electric room heaters rather than central gas, which can mean higher running costs. The service charge is around £1,559 pa and the ground rent is to be confirmed. The listing contains inconsistent information on bedroom count (one source lists 1 bedroom while the internal description states two) — buyers should verify the actual layout before committing.
Overall, this is a straightforward, low-risk purchase for first-time buyers or investors seeking a small, well-located flat with no onward chain and strong transport and schooling links. Expect modest living space and continued outgoings for service charges and electricity-based heating.
