One-bedroom third-floor apartment near Hayes & Harlington — ideal for first-time buyers and commuters.
50% shared ownership — affordable entry at £110,000 for a 50% share
A bright one-bedroom apartment in the Vantage Building, offered as 50% shared ownership, suits first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors seeking affordable entry into UB3. The open-plan 21ft lounge/diner and private balcony bring plenty of light and usable space, while the 16ft bedroom includes fitted wardrobes for practical storage. The development is modern (built post-2012) and positioned moments from Hayes & Harlington station, with quick Crossrail connections to central London and easy access to M4/M25 and Heathrow — strong commuter appeal.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the flat sits on the third floor of a contemporary block and benefits from allocated off-street parking, communal gardens and landscaped public space. Heating is provided via a mains gas community scheme and windows are modern double glazing, reducing immediate maintenance needs. The 86-year remaining lease is reasonable for shared ownership but buyers should note it is a leasehold purchase with associated obligations and service charges.
This property is attractively priced for shared ownership at £110,000 (50% share), offering an affordable route onto the ladder. The apartment’s compact kitchen and single bathroom reflect its one-bedroom layout — suitable for a single occupant or couple rather than a family. The surrounding area is a busy urban neighbourhood with good local amenities, but it sits within a deprived local area classification and records average crime levels; viewings will help assess local feel.
Overall this is a practical commuter-focused home with low upkeep and clear potential for comfortable urban living. It’s best suited to first-time buyers wanting an affordable share in a modern development, or investors looking for steady rental demand from nearby transport links. Buyers should budget for ongoing leasehold costs and confirm details of service charges and the community heating arrangement before committing.
