A centrally located two-bedroom apartment in Romford town centre, offered chain-free and with a long lease of 134 years. The flat sits above mixed-use shops and benefits from excellent transport links including the nearby Elizabeth Line, fast broadband and strong local amenities — useful for rental demand or convenience-focused buyers.
Internally the layout is straightforward with a lounge, separate kitchen, two bedrooms and a single bathroom across approximately 506 sq ft. The building dates from the mid-20th century and the flat shows signs that modernization is needed: double glazing installed pre-2002, timber-frame walls assumed to lack insulation, and visible wall stains and unfinished edges in places.
Practical running costs include mains gas central heating and an annual service charge of around £2,500. Crime levels in the area are above average, which is a factual consideration for both owner-occupiers and tenants. These factors offset the asset’s positives but also create scope for value-add through refurbishment and energy-efficiency improvements.
For landlords this property offers immediate let potential thanks to its town-centre location, transport links and nearby schools. For buyers seeking a renovation project the straight-line layout and long lease provide a stable platform for improvement and potential uplift in capital value and rental income. Verify service charge and lease details with your legal adviser.
