This ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers a compact, modern living space ideal for a first home or rental purchase. The bright open-plan reception and modern fitted kitchen make the most of 424 sq ft, and large windows and double glazing add daylight and insulation. Allocated off-street parking and a communal garden provide practical outdoor and parking benefits uncommon for flats of this size.
Practical details are straightforward: the property is chain-free, has a 94-year lease remaining, an annual service charge of about £1,460 and a ground rent of £200. Council Tax band C is relatively affordable. Transport links include easy access to the M25 and local buses; nearby amenities include shops, Tesco, pubs and local leisure facilities.
Buyers should note material factors: the overall internal size is small, and the development sits in an area with above-average crime levels and wider area deprivation indicators. These points affect resale desirability and lettability in some market segments. The lease length is reasonable for now but below 100 years, which may concern some mortgage lenders or future buyers.
For first-time buyers this is an affordable, low-maintenance entry into homeownership with immediate usability. For investors, the property’s size, location and service costs should be weighed against local rental demand and the area’s socio-economic profile before proceeding.
