This chain-free ground-floor, three-bedroom apartment in Milwards, Harlow, offers a compact, practical home or an affordable investment close to local amenities. The flat includes a modern small kitchen, double glazing, and mains gas central heating with a combi boiler recently installed — useful for day-to-day comfort. Broadband is fast and mobile signal excellent, making the property convenient for commuters and home workers.
The building is a 1970s concrete block construction with low ceilings and an exterior that will need cosmetic updating. The walls are cavity as built with no added insulation assumed, so buyers should budget for energy improvements. On-street parking only; there is no allocated parking space.
Important lease and area facts: the property is leasehold with approximately 84–85 years remaining — this is a material issue that will require a lease extension soon. Annual service charge is £960 (below average). The wider neighbourhood is classified as ‘commuters with young families’ but the immediate area shows higher-than-average crime and relative deprivation; nearby primary schools have good Ofsted ratings.
Suitable for first-time buyers seeking a low-entry purchase or investors looking for a value-add rental opportunity. Expect to invest time and money on modernization and possible energy upgrades; the short lease means lenders and future buyers may impose restrictions until extended.
