Bright one-bed apartment with balcony, near Romford station and town centre..
One double bedroom with bathroom and open-plan living kitchen
This one-bedroom apartment in Chapel Court offers a practical, modern home just a short walk from Romford town centre and station. The open-plan living and kitchen area opens onto a balcony, giving light and outdoor space for relaxing or entertaining. At around 503 sq ft the layout is comfortable for a first home or buy-to-let with a double bedroom and a straightforward bathroom.
The building is a modern development (post-2012) with double glazing and contemporary finishes throughout the living areas and kitchen. Practical features include integrated kitchen appliances, laminate and wood-effect flooring, and good mobile and broadband connectivity — useful for home working or streaming. The area benefits from nearby schools, leisure facilities and regular bus links.
Important practical notes: the property is leasehold with a service charge of approximately £1,400 per year and a small ground rent of £200 per year. Heating is provided via a community electricity scheme, which can affect utility costs compared with individual gas heating. There is no flood risk and local crime levels are low, but buyers should confirm the remaining lease length and budget for annual service charges and communal ownership costs.
Overall, this apartment suits first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance, well-located home or investors looking for a modern one-bed close to transport links. It combines move-in-ready finishes with predictable communal costs — but check lease details and heating costs before committing.
