Summary - Flat 30, Kingfisher Heights, Hogg Lane RM17 5QQ
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Chain-free, commuter-friendly flat with private balcony and allocated parking.
Long lease: 187 years remaining
A well-presented, chain-free two-bedroom apartment on the top (second) floor of a gated modern development. The long lease (187 years) and allocated parking make ownership straightforward, while a private balcony and communal garden extend the living space. The open-plan living room with contemporary kitchen provides a bright, usable layout suitable for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
Practical running costs are clear: service charge approximately £1,020 per year (£85 pcm) and ground rent £200 per year; council tax band C. The property is compact at about 605 sq ft, so rooms feel efficient rather than generous. Heating is by electric room heaters (no communal gas), and the glazing is double glazed though installation date is unknown.
Location is a key strength — around 0.2 miles from Grays station for swift c2c services into London and close to Grays town centre and Lakeside retail and leisure. That transport link and the long lease support rental appeal and resale prospects. Be aware the immediate area has high crime statistics and higher deprivation, which may influence family buyers and rental demand in some tenant segments.
Overall this apartment offers an affordable entry into ownership with low upfront tenure risk, a practical layout, and commuter convenience. Buyers wanting larger living areas or gas central heating should note the compact floorplan and electric heating, but for its size and position this is a tidy, move-in-ready option.
