Summary - 17 MESSANT CLOSE HAROLD WOOD ROMFORD RM3 0WP
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact one-bed ground-floor flat near Harold Wood station with parking and communal gardens.
Allocated off-street parking for one vehicle
This ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Messant Close offers a compact, low-maintenance home close to Harold Wood station — ideal for a first-time buyer or someone looking to downsize. The modern block dates from the early 1990s and benefits from allocated off-street parking and well-kept communal gardens, making everyday life straightforward.
Internally the flat is small (around 420 sq ft) with an open-plan living area and a double bedroom that maximise usable space. It has double glazing and a contemporary feel, though heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central system — expect higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with about 91 years remaining, an annual service charge of approximately £1,500 and a ground rent of £200. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, which may affect home working or streaming. Crime and local deprivation levels are average, and there is no flood risk.
Overall this is a convenient, well-located flat for a buyer prioritising transport links and low-exterior maintenance. It presents immediate move-in potential but also some ongoing running costs and limitations (size, heating, internet) to factor into affordability and lifestyle planning.
