Modern one‑bed apartment close to Basildon station — no onward chain.
Allocated off‑street parking space included
This one‑bedroom first‑floor apartment at 135 Cherrydown East is a practical entry point for a first‑time buyer seeking a modern, low‑maintenance home close to transport and town amenities. The open‑plan living area, contemporary kitchen and bathroom, and private terrace create a comfortable, bright living space with straightforward daily use.
Commuting is easy — Basildon station is a very short walk away — and the allocated off‑street parking adds convenience that's often rare at this price. The property is offered with no onward chain, so completion can be quicker for buyers who want to move in without delay.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with 109 years remaining and an annual ground rent of £700, which is relatively high and will affect running costs. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which may lead to higher energy bills depending on usage. The apartment is an average size (578 sq ft) and suited to single occupants or couples rather than those needing more space.
Overall, this is a sensible, well‑located home for a first‑time buyer looking for convenience and modern finishes, provided they factor leasehold charges and electric heating into their budget.
