Set on the first floor above local shops and just moments from the Elizabeth Line, this one‑bedroom flat offers a compact, commuter‑friendly home or a straightforward buy‑to‑let. The layout is efficient with a reception room, fitted kitchen, double bedroom and modern bathroom across approximately 485 sq ft. The property is chain free and comes with a long lease (127 years) and a below‑average service charge, making it easy to purchase.
Internal condition is described as good with contemporary finishes such as parquet flooring and recessed lighting in the living area. Heating is supplied by electric storage heaters and mains electricity; there is no communal gas. Double glazing was installed post‑2002. The building is a mid‑terrace post‑war brick block with a communal paved terrace rather than a private garden.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: the walls are cavity brick with no installed cavity insulation (assumed), which may affect running costs and future retrofit work. The property sits above shops so there is street/communal noise potential, and the local area is classified as deprived with average crime levels. These factors, plus electric heating, are relevant for long‑term energy costs and councillor/insurance considerations.
This flat suits first‑time buyers or commuter investors seeking immediate access to West Drayton/Elizabeth Line, good broadband and excellent mobile signal. It offers low maintenance, a long lease and straightforward layout — a practical, well‑located entry into the local market.
