This top-floor one-bedroom apartment in Romford offers a straightforward, move-in ready option for a first-time buyer. At about 549 sq ft the flat feels larger than many one-bed city apartments and benefits from modern fittings, recent double glazing and straightforward electric heating. The property is chain-free and comes with contents included, making a quick, low-fuss purchase possible.
Practical running costs are clear: a service charge of about £1,999 per year and a ground rent of £250 per year. The lease has approximately 107 years remaining, which is healthy for resale and mortgageability. Off-street parking is available through the adjoining Q-Park with a residents’ discount, though parking is not an owned space.
Location is the main draw — central Romford, roughly ten minutes’ walk to the mainline station and surrounded by high-street amenities, shops and leisure options. This suits new buyers who need excellent transport links and access to local services.
Be aware of two material caveats. Crime levels in the area are recorded as very high, which may affect perceived security and insurance costs. Heating relies on electric room heaters rather than a gas central system, which can mean higher energy bills in winter compared with gas-heated homes.
