A bright, well-presented two-bedroom first-floor flat in a handsome period conversion on Essex Road. The apartment has been kept in good order with modern neutral finishes, double glazing and a compact open-plan kitchen/dining area that makes efficient use of its footprint. Its long lease (981 years) and no onward chain simplify purchase for a first-time buyer.
Transport is a clear selling point: Acton Mainline (Elizabeth line) is a short walk away, giving fast cross-London links. Local shops, cafés and parks are within easy reach, and major routes such as the A40 connect to neighbouring Ealing, Chiswick and Shepherds Bush — useful for commuting or weekend plans.
Practical points to note: the flat is small (around 506 sq ft) and has no private garden or obvious outdoor space, so it suits a single occupant, couple or those seeking a low-maintenance home. There is an annual service charge of approximately £1,300 and Council Tax Band D. The building’s original solid brick walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, which could affect heating efficiency and running costs.
Overall this property offers a convenient, move-in-ready period flat with secure long-lease ownership and excellent transport links. It will particularly appeal to first-time buyers wanting a manageable London home with strong commuter access, or investors seeking reliable rental potential given the location and condition.
