Summary - 7, Cunningham Close, ROMFORD RM6 4YB
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
One-bedroom retirement flat; garden views, 99-year lease, close to shops and A12.
Ground-floor retirement flat with communal garden views
A purpose-built, ground-floor retirement flat positioned for over-60s living with direct access to a quiet communal garden. The living room and bedroom both overlook the garden, bringing in natural light to this modest one-bedroom home. The kitchen is open-plan to the lounge and includes fitted units with an integrated oven and hob. Careline pullcords are fitted in each room for added peace of mind.
Practical details suit a downsizer: a 99-year lease on completion, double glazing installed after 2002, EPC band C and no flood risk. The property is close to Chadwell Heath High Road shops, local bus routes and the A12 for easy road links. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent.
Important considerations are straightforward. The flat is small at about 399 sq ft and uses electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. The property is leasehold with a service charge of £255 per month (approximately £3,060 annually) — factor this into running costs. The block dates from the late 1970s, so cosmetic updating may be desirable for personal taste.
This home works well for a single retiree seeking low-stairs, managed communal living close to local amenities. It offers immediate move-in potential with clear practical support features, while also giving scope for modest refurbishment to suit individual preferences.
