Blank-canvas flat near West Drayton station ideal for first-time buyers.
Chain-free ground-floor one-bedroom with communal garden access
A ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offered chain-free and ready for refurbishment. At 465 sq.ft the flat has a simple, practical layout: a generous bedroom with built-in storage, a sizeable living room with patio doors to the communal garden, a compact kitchen and a three-piece shower room. A new, extended lease will be provided on completion, and an allocated off-street parking space adds convenience.
The property requires modernisation throughout, making it a good prospect for a buyer who wants to personalise finishes and add value. Heating is via electric storage heaters and double glazing is already installed; buyers should note average broadband speeds and that the local area scores as deprived, which can affect resale in some markets.
Location is a clear strength: popular residential development in Newcombe Rise, approximately 0.6 miles from West Drayton station with Elizabeth Line access, and close to Hillingdon Hospital, Stockley Park and Heathrow. The communal garden and maintained grounds add outside space uncommon for one-bedroom flats in the price bracket.
For first-time buyers or investors seeking a manageable project near transport links, this flat offers scope to improve and adapt. Important practical points — lease, parking and communal garden — are in place, while renovation costs and electric heating should be factored into purchase budgets.
