Chain-free two-bed with parking, garden and good transport links — ideal first step onto the ladder.
Chain free two-bedroom first-floor apartment with private entrance
This chain-free, first-floor apartment offers an accessible entry into Rochester living with private access and off-street parking for two cars. The layout makes the most of its footprint, with a light reception room, fitted kitchen and two bedrooms, plus loft storage and a small private garden for outdoor space.
At about 474 sq ft, the home suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a compact property close to transport links and good local schools. The area is described as an achieving neighbourhood of multi-ethnic professionals with families, with fast broadband and low flood risk — practical benefits for everyday life.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold with 88 years remaining and runs on electric storage heaters. The building dates from the 1980s and while the apartment is well presented, some cosmetic updating would modernise the living room and exterior which show signs of age. These are manageable works that could add value.
Overall this is a sensible, no-chain purchase for someone wanting a small, well-located home with parking and a private garden. Early viewing is recommended to assess space and scope for modernisation.
