Move-in ready flat with communal gardens and efficient heating.
0.8 miles to Brentwood Station, convenient for commuters
This well-kept one-bedroom apartment on the second floor offers a bright, practical home for a first-time buyer or investor. The living room and bedroom both receive good natural light through large windows, and the fitted kitchen and modern bathroom are move-in ready. Communal landscaped grounds provide pleasant green space and a degree of privacy.
Location is a genuine asset: Brentwood Station is about 0.8 miles away, making commuting straightforward, and Brentwood High Street’s shops and eateries are within easy reach. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and presents as a typical, solid brick apartment block with double glazing and cavity-filled walls.
Be aware of a few material points: the flat is leasehold with 91 years remaining, a modest ground rent and a below-average service charge of £780 per year. Broadband speeds in the area are slow and the local recorded crime level is high, which may concern some buyers — viewing the area at different times of day is recommended.
Overall, this apartment suits someone seeking an affordable, well-presented entry into the Brentwood market or a simple, low-maintenance rental opportunity close to transport links. It offers practical living space and good local amenities, with predictable running costs and clear scope to personalise over time.
