This top-floor two-bedroom flat in Purfleet-on-Thames offers a bright, low-maintenance home ideal for a first-time buyer or investor. The open-plan living area with Juliet balcony and two windows delivers plenty of natural light and far-reaching views, while loft access provides useful extra storage. Allocated off-street parking and a modern fitted kitchen add everyday convenience.
Practical details strengthen the long-term appeal: the lease has approximately 134 years remaining, and the property is double glazed. Service charge and ground rent are modest for the area (£1,480 and £204 per year respectively). The building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and is detached within a low-rise modernist development.
Buyers should be aware of several material factors. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the property is on an electricity-fuel system, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas. Broadband speeds are reported as slow. The local area has a higher crime level and sits in a deprived area classification; council tax is above average. EPC rating is E.
Overall, the flat is a practical, well-presented starter home or rental unit in a commuter location close to Purfleet c2c station, schools and retail links. Its long lease and allocated parking are genuine strengths, balanced against running-cost and local-area considerations that buyers should factor into affordability and investment plans.
