Set within the Moormede Estate, this chain-free two-bedroom apartment offers practical, well-presented accommodation ideal for first-time buyers or commuters. The flat includes two double bedrooms, a bright reception with balcony access, a fitted kitchen, and a private garage plus residents' parking — useful extras in central Staines.
The property comes with a long lease (146 years) and a manageable service charge (around £1,200 annually). Its compact 609 sq ft layout keeps running costs lower, and the proximity to Staines mainline station and high street amenities makes daily life and commuting straightforward.
Buyers should note a few material points: heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more costly than gas central heating; the glazing dates from before 2002 and may not be the most energy-efficient; and the building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s. Local recorded crime levels are above average, which should be factored into location decisions.
Overall, this apartment presents sensible value for someone seeking an affordable, low-entry home or a commuter buy with secure parking and a long lease. It suits purchasers who prioritise location and convenience and who are comfortable updating elements like heating or windows over time.
