The layout suits downsizers, shoppers for step-free living, or commuters needing easy bus links to Romford and Hainault stations. Two generous double bedrooms and plentiful storage make everyday living straightforward.
Practical details are appealing: a long lease (117 years remaining), low annual service charge (approx. £1,020) and off-street parking. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators, and the property sits next to Havering Country Park for easy outdoor access.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat within a neighbourhood flagged as having higher hardship indicators in area statistics. The building and apartment are described as modern and well presented, but the overall neighbourhood classification may be a consideration for some purchasers. Council tax is described as cheap and local crime levels are low.
This apartment offers sensible commuter convenience and comfortable, accessible living without the premium of a bungalow. It’s best suited to downsizers seeking ground-floor ease, first-time buyers wanting room to grow, or investors looking for steady rental demand near public transport and open green space.
