This tucked-away ground-floor apartment in Templar Court offers a practical first step on the property ladder. The layout is traditionally arranged and feels generous for its size, with a large lounge/diner, two double bedrooms and a modern fitted kitchen. Allocated off-street parking and well-kept communal gardens add convenience and outdoor space without the maintenance of a private garden.
The location suits commuters and young families — Romford town centre and mainline station are within easy reach, and the Elizabeth line improves city connections. Local schools are rated Good and everyday shops and supermarkets are nearby, making daily life straightforward.
The flat is offered with no onward chain, so a quick move is possible. Important practical points: the property is leasehold with 94 years remaining, a ground rent of £250 per year and a service charge reported as low. The lease includes a periodic uplift (£125 every 25 years), so factor this and the sub-100-year term into mortgage or future purchase plans.
Overall, this is a sensible, well-located apartment for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance home close to transport and amenities. Buyers should check lease specifics and long-term costs before committing.
