Service charge: £1827.69 per annum and a reserve fund of £291.67 per annum
Ground rent: £0

Situated on a lovely, quiet turning in this popular Dagenham East location, this purpose-built first-floor apartment represents an excellent opportunity for a first-time buyer, single occupant, couple or buy-to-let investor. With 953 years remaining on the lease, allocated parking and an exceptionally convenient location, this is a property that offers both practicality and long-term appeal.

The location is a particular highlight. Dagenham East Underground Station is approximately 0.1 miles away, providing easy access to the District Line and onward connections into London. Everyday shopping could hardly be more convenient, with a Tesco Express at the end of Shafter Road, while works are also in place for a new Lidl supermarket close by, adding further convenience to the area.

Access to the apartment is via a secure communal street entrance, with stairs leading to the first-floor landing. Please note there is no lift

Once inside, the accommodation offers a practical and well-planned layout. The separate lounge is a comfortable reception space with a Juliet balcony overlooking the front, together with a wall-mounted convector heater.

The separate kitchen is positioned to the rear and is fitted with a range of wall and base units, with space for appliances. A rear-facing window provides excellent natural ventilation and light.

The property benefits from a double bedroom, complete with impressive floor-to-ceiling sliding-door built-in wardrobes, providing an abundance of storage. There is also a rear-facing window and wall-mounted heater.

The integral bathroom comprises a bath, wash hand basin and WC, with tiling to walls and wall-mounted electric shower over the bath.

Storage is another particularly useful feature, with a large walk-in storage cupboard housing the hot and cold water tanks, alongside a further smaller storage cupboard which is ideal for coats, shoes and everyday belongings.

To the rear of the property is the communal car park, where the apartment benefits from one allocated parking space - another valuable feature for both owner-occupiers and prospective landlords.

The property is move-in ready and perfectly habitable, although it is somewhat dated internally. This provides an excellent opportunity for a new owner to gradually modernise and put their own stamp on the property, without taking on a complete renovation project.

For a first-time buyer looking for an affordable first step onto the property ladder, a single occupant wanting a manageable home in a highly convenient location, or an investor seeking a straightforward buy-to-let opportunity, this flat offers an appealing combination of location, parking, generous lease length and potential
