This two-bedroom first-floor maisonette offers a long lease (approx. 177 years remaining) with a peppercorn ground rent and very low service charges — a practical starter purchase close to local amenities. Set in a quiet cul-de-sac, the home includes a private 60ft x 24ft garden, kitchen balcony and off-street parking, and lies within walking distance of the High Road, parks and Chadwell Heath station (Elizabeth Line, Zone 5).
The interior is presented in liveable, basic condition with contemporary neutral decor in the reception and laminate flooring. Rooms are modestly sized (circa 596 sq ft total) and suit a couple, small family or buy-to-let investor. Heating is gas central heating with a boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed, though install dates are unknown.
Notable negatives are factual: the property sits in an area with above-average crime statistics and higher local deprivation. The building is solid-brick (likely no cavity insulation), EPC rated D, and external presentation looks dated — pruning and cosmetic work would improve kerb appeal. Buyers should note the property is leasehold (term confirmed to 23/06/2203) and the vendor is finalising the lease extension paperwork.
Overall this maisonette is a cost-effective entry-to-market opportunity with a substantial private garden and good transport links. It will reward buyers prepared to invest modestly in cosmetic updating, landscaping and energy improvements.
