Compact, low-maintenance home close to Ockendon Station and local schools.
Ground-floor flat with private entrance and communal parking
This compact ground-floor two-bedroom flat offers a practical, low-maintenance home with a private entrance and convenient access to Ockendon Station. The interior is well presented with a modern fitted kitchen, bright living space and two usable bedrooms — suited to someone seeking a straightforward first home or buy-to-let opportunity.
Practical running costs are mixed: council tax is low and the service charge and ground rent are modest, but heating is electric via room heaters which can push energy bills above average. The property measures about 493 sq ft and is part of a 1980s block with communal parking and standard ceiling heights.
Important lease information: there are 55 years remaining on the lease. This is short and may prevent some mortgage lenders from offering finance — buyers should obtain specialist mortgage advice and consider lease extension costs before committing. The local area shows higher-than-average crime and some deprivation, so buyers should factor neighbourhood context into their decision.
For the right buyer — particularly a cash purchaser, investor comfortable with lease matters, or a first-time buyer prepared to seek specialist lending — this flat delivers transport convenience, a modern kitchen, and a manageable service charge. There is no flood risk and local schools include several rated Good and one Outstanding secondary school nearby.
