Compact, well-presented apartment with long lease and allocated parking ideal for starters.
Chain-free two-bedroom first-floor apartment with long 152-year lease
Set back from London Road, this neat first-floor apartment offers a long lease (152 years) and chain-free sale, suited to a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The lounge is the largest room, providing flexible living space, while two bedrooms and a fitted kitchen complete the practical layout. Communal lawned grounds and allocated off-street parking add convenience in a purpose-built block constructed in the 1980s.
The interior is well presented with double glazing and contemporary fittings in the kitchen and bathroom. Heating is by electric storage heaters and mains services are in place; broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent. Service charge runs at about £1,980 pa (approx. £165 pcm) and the property is leasehold — costs and tenure are important to factor into your budget.
Accommodation is compact (approximately 496 sq ft) and will suit buyers seeking an economical starter home or a straightforward rental proposition. There is scope for cosmetic improvement and better internal storage configuration to increase appeal and rental yield. The flat is within walking distance of local shops, eateries and transport links, with easy access to the A13/A130 corridor.
Notable considerations: the home uses electric storage heating rather than gas, which may affect running costs, and the apartment’s footprint is modest compared with larger family homes. Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance option for someone prioritising location, a long lease and quick move-in potential.
