Summary - 5 ERITH CRESCENT ROMFORD RM5 3JJ
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Long lease, private garden and off-street parking ideal for first-time buyers.
990 years lease remaining, nominal £5 ground rent per year
This two-bedroom ground-floor maisonette offers a long lease and private outdoor space close to local shops and schools. With 990 years remaining and a nominal £5 ground rent, the tenure is unusually secure for a property of this type. The layout includes an 11ft living room opening to a conservatory, a fitted kitchen and a three-piece shower room; a paved driveway provides off-street parking and the rear garden extends to approximately 40ft with side access.
The property suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking an affordable entry into Romford. The accommodation is modest in size (approximately 517 sq ft) and shows evidence of everyday wear: some redecoration and minor repairs are needed, particularly flooring and kitchen base areas visible in photos. Energy performance is D and the building is post‑war solid brick with pebble-dash exterior; double glazing is present though installation dates are unknown.
Important sale details: the property is offered by conditional auction with a non-refundable reservation fee (4.2% inc VAT, min. £6,600) payable by the successful bidder. There is no onward chain, which can speed completion, but buyers should factor the auction sale process and fees into their budget. Council tax band B and excellent broadband/mobiles are practical pluses for everyday living.
Overall, this maisonette provides a long-lease, low-running-cost opportunity in a convenient Romford location. It will reward buyers prepared to carry out modest cosmetic work and those prioritising tenure security and outdoor space over generous internal floor area.
