Set within a well-maintained mid-20th-century brick block, this first-floor two-bedroom flat offers compact, efficient living close to Ruislip and Ruislip Manor stations. The layout includes two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen, a family bathroom and a small balcony, with a long 108-year lease making the ownership straightforward for buyers and landlords alike. Communal grounds and residents’ parking/garage add outdoor amenity and practical convenience in an otherwise urban setting.
The apartment is small at approximately 388 sq ft, so it suits buyers seeking a starter home or a rental let rather than roomier family living. Decorative finishes are dated in places (1970s-style wallpaper, period chandelier, gas fireplace heater) and some fabric elements—such as original solid-brick walls—suggest limited insulation and potential for energy-efficiency improvements. Double glazing is present but install date is unknown.
Practical positives include excellent transport links (Metropolitan and Piccadilly lines within walking distance), low local crime, fast broadband and an affluent, well-served neighbourhood with strong schools nearby. Notable costs to consider are typical leasehold obligations (service charge/ground rent likely) and potential refurbishment to modernise heating, decoration and insulation. For a modest budget this flat presents clear value as a long-lease purchase or buy-to-let in a desirable suburban location.
