Guide price £230,000–£240,000. This ground-floor two-bedroom flat offers an affordable entry into Purfleet-on-Thames with a generous open-plan living and dining area ideal for first-time buyers seeking space to personalise. The accommodation is clean and well presented, with modern flooring and a naturally bright aspect.
Practical details favour convenience: a 119-year lease remains, very low flood risk, double glazing, and a service charge of £1,349 with a modest ground rent of £10. The property is about 0.7 miles from Purfleet station and close to shops, buses and several schools, including strong-rated local academies.
There are some material points to note. Heating is via electric storage heaters, which can be less efficient and more costly than gas central heating. The kitchen dates from the 1990s and would benefit from modernisation to suit contemporary preferences. The building appears to be system-built with partial insulation, so potential buyers should consider energy performance and future improvement costs.
The wider neighbourhood has higher crime and area deprivation metrics; buyers should weigh local social context against the flat’s affordability and transport links. Overall, the flat presents a pragmatic low-cost home or lettable asset for someone ready to carry out modest updates.
