The flat includes a double bedroom, separate kitchen, bright reception room with dining space, family bathroom and built-in storage — all arranged over approximately 467 sq ft. It comes with off-street parking, access to well-kept communal gardens and a secure entry system, and is sold chain free at auction, which will suit buyers seeking a quick transaction.
Location is a key benefit: the property sits just off Staines Road with fast links to Hatton Cross, Hounslow Central and Hounslow West Underground stations, easy access to the A4/M4 and proximity to Heathrow. Local amenities, shops and several well-rated schools (including outstanding secondaries) are within walking distance, making this practical for commuting first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors targeting rental demand.
Important facts and drawbacks: the property is leasehold with 89 years remaining, a service charge of about £1,335 pa and ground rent of £10 pa. The area shows above-average crime and higher deprivation levels, which prospective buyers should factor into investment or long-term living plans. The interior is dated in places and will suit someone prepared to modernise rather than seeking a turnkey finish.
Overall this is a budget-friendly, well-located flat that offers clear potential for rental income or owner-occupation after modest updating. Buyers should check auction terms, confirm lease details, service charge accounts and factor in any refurbishment costs before bidding.
