Summary - 161 EXPRESS DRIVE ILFORD IG3 9RD
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact commuter flat with parking near Goodmayes Station and local amenities.
Separate reception and fitted kitchen
This one-bedroom flat sits on Express Drive, a short distance from Goodmayes amenities and Goodmayes Station, making it a practical choice for commuters and first-time buyers seeking local convenience. The layout offers a separate reception room and kitchen, plus an average-sized double bedroom and a modern family bathroom. Off-street parking and double glazing are useful day-to-day benefits.
Important: the property has only 66 years remaining on the lease. That is likely to make mortgage lending difficult and will be a key factor for any buyer; consider lease-extension costs and lender criteria before proceeding. The annual service charge is £1,561 and ground rent £90; running costs also include electric room heaters rather than a central gas system.
For someone happy to manage the lease situation and modest running costs, the flat provides straightforward accommodation in a well-served part of IG3 with good broadband and mobile signal. It’s suitable for a buyer who values location and transport links and is prepared to budget for future lease or heating upgrades. The flat is sold as average-sized accommodation and will suit those wanting a compact, low-maintenance home or a lettable unit in a busy local market.
Viewings are advised for anyone considering purchase, with particular attention to finance options and long-term ownership costs due to the limited lease term.
