Ready-to-move-in three-bed with balcony, parking and long 975-year lease.
Guide price £270,000–£280,000
This bright three-bedroom second-floor apartment offers practical, low-maintenance living in Chafford Hundred. The property is presented in good condition with a sizeable lounge, private balcony and included off-street parking — appealing to families or first-time buyers seeking ready-to-move-in accommodation.
Accommodation includes two double bedrooms (one with en-suite), a third bedroom useful as a bedroom or home workspace, a family bathroom and a functional kitchen. The long 975-year lease provides long-term security and the guide price range of £270,000–£280,000 reflects the accessible local market.
Location is a clear asset: quiet residential close, short walk to the local station and well-regarded primary and secondary schools nearby, plus parks and leisure facilities. There is no flooding risk and the area reports low crime and high overall affluence.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: the overall internal size is relatively small (approximately 670 sq ft), broadband speeds are reported as slow, and there is an average service charge of £1,686 a year plus a modest ground rent of £25. These running costs and the apartment’s compact footprint are important when comparing value with alternatives.
For a buyer wanting a straightforward, well-located home or a rental opportunity with long lease security, this apartment balances convenience and low upkeep. Viewings will suit those prioritising transport links, school access and a ready-to-live-in property over large internal space or high-speed internet.
