This first-floor one-bedroom maisonette sits in a quiet Romford cul-de-sac, offered chain free and ready to move into. Its open-plan lounge-diner and compact contemporary kitchen make efficient use of the 389 sq ft, while the double bedroom includes fitted wardrobes. A rear garden provides a low-maintenance outdoor space accessed via a shared path.
Location is a clear strength: Harold Wood Elizabeth Line is about 0.8 miles away, giving fast cross‑London links, and local schools and roads (A127, A12, M25) are within easy reach. Heating is by mains-gas boiler with radiators and the home has double glazing (install date unknown). Council Tax Band C keeps running costs reasonable.
Buyers should note an urgent practical drawback: the lease shows about 81 years remaining. This is low enough to deter some mortgage lenders and will require prompt lease extension action and associated costs. The property is leasehold and, while chain free, purchasers must factor in lease-renewal expense and potential financing limitations.
Overall this is a compact, turnkey option suited to a first-time buyer or someone downsizing who prioritises transport links and low-maintenance living. The home’s small size and short lease limit long-term investment upside unless the lease is extended.
