Summary - HALE HOUSE FLAT 1 BENJAMIN CLOSE HORNCHURCH RM11 1DA
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free, long lease and parking—ideal first home or investor project close to local schools.
Ground-floor two-bedroom flat, approx 483 sq ft
A compact, chain-free two-bedroom ground-floor flat offering an affordable entry to the Hornchurch market. The accommodation extends to approximately 483 sq ft and includes a reception room, separate kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. Practical extras include double glazing, mains gas central heating and built-in wardrobes to the main bedroom.
The long lease (903 years) removes a common barrier to purchase, and residents benefit from communal gardens and off-street parking to the front. Service charge is £1,368pa and there is no ground rent. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the property suitable for home working and connected everyday life.
Internally the finish is traditional and the kitchen and some communal elevations show signs of age. The flat will suit a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor prepared to modernise for immediate comfort or rental uplift. Note the overall footprint is modest; room sizes are typical for a small two-bedroom flat.
Location strengths include proximity to local schools rated 'Good', nearby transport links and local amenities. The building was constructed in the late 1960s/early 1970s and, while functional, may benefit from targeted updates (kitchen, cosmetic refresh and potential insulation upgrades) to maximise value and comfort.
