A compact top-floor flat in Tilbury offering immediate vacant possession and practical amenities for a buyer seeking a low-maintenance investment or a simple first home. The property includes private off-street parking, access to communal gardens, loft storage and standard modern fittings throughout.
Important: the lease has 64 years remaining. This is likely to restrict mortgage availability — many lenders refuse to lend on leases under accepted thresholds. Prospective buyers should seek specialist mortgage advice or be prepared to proceed with cash purchase.
The flat is small (approx. 428 sq ft) but well presented with a fitted kitchen, one bedroom and a bright living room. Service charge is £999.99 pa (described as below average) and ground rent is £120 pa. Mobile signal is excellent and broadband speeds are fast, useful for remote working or streaming.
Location benefits include close walking distance to Tilbury Town station and local amenities (shops, schools rated Good, bus links). Be aware the local crime rate is very high — check personal safety measures and insurance implications. Overall this suits a cash buyer, a buy-to-let investor familiar with short leases, or someone prioritising transport links and low internal maintenance over long-term mortgage financing.
