Summary - Flat 3 Gateway Court, 5-7, Parham Drive IG2 6LZ
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Elevated outlook, gated development and quick Central Line connections.
Sixth-floor apartment with large private balcony and panoramic views
Set on the sixth floor of a gated development in Gants Hill, this modern two-bedroom apartment offers practical city-edge living with a large private balcony and panoramic views. The open-plan lounge, dining and kitchen area creates a social, light-filled heart to the home, while two well-proportioned bedrooms include a master with an en-suite. At about 657 sq ft the layout is efficient for couples or first-time buyers seeking easy access to central London.
Practical strengths include a long lease (232 years remaining), double glazing, mains gas central heating and leaseable off-street parking. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working. The property sits within walking distance of Gants Hill Central Line station and a wide range of local shops, cafes and amenities, and is near several well-rated schools including two Outstanding-rated options.
Buyers should note the material running costs: an average service charge of £2,836 per year and a ground rent of £250. Parking is available by separate lease rather than included. The location records a high local crime rate, which some purchasers will want to review against personal priorities and security measures within the gated development.
Overall, this is a contemporary, ready-to-live-in apartment with good transport links and long lease security. It will suit a first-time buyer or investor wanting a modern two-bedroom in a well-connected part of Ilford, provided the service charges and local crime data are acceptable to the purchaser.
