Set just a short walk from Upminster town centre and rail links, this ground-floor two-bedroom maisonette offers practical living in a sought-after residential pocket. The layout is straightforward: a medium lounge, fitted kitchen, two good-size bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom. A private rear garden and a detached powered outbuilding add useful outdoor and workspace options.
A very rare local advantage is the detached garage alongside additional on-street parking — valuable for commuters. The property is well presented and decorated to a good standard, with double glazing and gas central heating providing everyday comfort. Nearby green space and highly regarded schools suit first-time buyers and downsizers seeking convenience and community.
Buyers should note material constraints: the flat is leasehold with 77 years remaining, which may cause mortgage lenders to refuse lending or demand higher terms. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s; cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so owners may face retrofit costs. The area records higher crime levels than average, which some buyers will want to investigate further.
Overall, this compact property is well located and ready to occupy, with clear potential to add value through modest updating and insulation improvements. It suits a buyer who wants quick access to transport, local schools, and the rare convenience of a private garage, while accepting leasehold limits and potential improvement costs.
