Shared-ownership 35% purchase for easier first-time ownership.
Private ground-floor entrance with southeast-facing patio
A bright, nearly-new two-bedroom ground-floor flat offering independent access and a private southeast patio. The open-plan reception with herringbone-style flooring and a neatly integrated kitchen creates a calm living space ideal for modern first-time buyers seeking a manageable step onto the ladder. Both bedrooms are doubles and there is useful storage including a utility space.
This is a shared ownership opportunity: buy a 35% share for £122,500 with rent payable on the remaining share. Monthly outgoings are kept modest by a low service charge (listed at £300) and all-electric heating on a community scheme; the property holds an EPC rating of B for good energy efficiency.
Practical extras include an allocated parking space, secure bike shed and visitor parking, fast broadband and strong mobile signal. Mardyke Open Space and Beam Parklands sit directly outside the development, and several “Good” Ofsted-rated primary and secondary schools lie within walking distance. Rainham station is just over a mile away with quick A13 access to central London and the M25.
Important considerations: the property sits in an area recorded with higher crime and significant deprivation indicators, which buyers should factor into location choice. Pets and any major changes require housing association approval. Shared ownership carries ongoing rent and eligibility checks, and there is a non-refundable biometric money‑laundering check fee to complete once an offer is accepted.
