Compact 3-bed maisonette — garden, parking and short walk to Romford station.
Top-floor maisonette with private garden and two balconies
This top-floor 3-bedroom maisonette in RM7 offers practical commuter living with a private garden and off-street parking. At about 797 sq ft the home is compact but well arranged, with a cosy living area featuring a log burner, a balcony off the living/dining room and a second balcony off the kitchen. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit home-working and everyday connectivity.
The property is attractive to young families and commuters: it's within walking distance of Romford station (Elizabeth Line) and close to several well-rated primary and secondary schools. The lease has 110 years remaining and there are no ground rent or service charges to pay, simplifying longer-term costs. Council tax is described as affordable.
Buyers should note the maisonette sits in an early 20th-century semi with solid brick walls (likely uninsulated as built) and will benefit from modernization in places — the driveway and some internal finishes need updating. Crime in the area is above average, so consider security measures. There is one bathroom only, and overall the property is small, which may limit space for larger families.
Overall, this is a sensible purchase for a commuter household or first-time buyer seeking a ready-to-live-in home with scope to improve and add value, especially given the long lease and lack of ongoing service charges.
