This chain-free, first-floor one-bedroom apartment in Silverfern Court offers an accessible route onto the ladder through Shared Ownership (25% share). Built in 2022 and covered by an NHBC guarantee, the flat is modern and well-presented with an open-plan 18ft reception/kitchen, useful storage/utility cupboard, and a private balcony that extends the living space.
Comfort and low-maintenance living are highlights: underfloor heating throughout, integrated kitchen appliances, USB sockets and lift access. The building sits within a communal garden and benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical for everyday life and working from home.
Buyers should note the material costs and eligibility conditions: a service charge of approximately £1,839 per year, an estimated monthly rent of around £543.36 (on the 25% share) and ground rent details are to be confirmed. Purchase is subject to meeting Havering Council’s shared-ownership criteria.
This property suits first-time buyers seeking a modern, low-upkeep home with good local amenities and transport links. The lease has 247 years remaining, reducing long-lease concerns; however, the wider area shows high levels of deprivation, which may influence long-term prospects and local services. Prospective purchasers should complete their own checks and budget for ongoing charges and eligibility steps.
