This newly refurbished two-bedroom first-floor maisonette offers a straightforward entry into the Hayes market with a long lease and private outdoor space. The interior is presented to a high standard with a modern fitted kitchen, contemporary bathroom and a bright reception room that benefits from large windows and built-in shelving. At about 522 sq ft the layout is compact but well-proportioned for a first home or buy-to-let.
A major practical advantage is the long lease (117 years) and modest ground rent (£100), which reduce ownership costs compared with shorter-lease flats. The property also has a generous private rear garden accessed from the flat — a rare find for this type — and excellent digital connectivity with fast broadband and strong mobile signal. Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line) is within easy reach, making commutes into central London straightforward.
Buyers should note the maisonette’s modest overall size and mostly average room dimensions; the accommodation will suit a couple, small family or investor rather than someone needing larger living space. The building dates from the 1930s–1940s and has solid brick walls that are assumed to lack cavity insulation, which could mean higher heating demand despite gas central heating. Parking is unrestricted on-street only. The surrounding area is mixed in character and classed as relatively deprived, with average local crime levels.
Overall this is a sensible, low-maintenance purchase for first-time buyers or investors looking for a ready-to-move-in property near good schools and fast transport links. The combination of long lease, private garden and recent refurbishment gives immediate appeal, while obvious trade-offs are compact internal space, limited parking and potential historic-wall insulation work if energy-efficiency upgrades are wanted.
