NO ONWARD CHAIN | TWO BEDROOM FIRST FLOOR APARTMENT | PRIVATE BALCONY | PRIME UPMINSTER LOCATION | 171-YEAR LEASE
A beautifully presented and exceptionally well-positioned two-bedroom first-floor apartment, offering an impressive combination of contemporary living, generous accommodation and superb connectivity, all complemented by the significant advantage of NO ONWARD CHAIN.
Beresfords are delighted to present this appealing property to the market, ideally suited to first-time buyers, couples, young families, downsizers and investors alike. Situated in a highly convenient part of Upminster, this excellent home provides easy access to a wide range of local amenities, highly regarded schools and major road networks, whilst offering a comfortable and practical layout designed for modern living.
From the moment you arrive, the property creates an excellent first impression. A secure communal entrance provides access to the building, stairs leading through to the first floor and the apartment itself.
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a well-proportioned interior offering a natural balance between everyday practicality and comfortable family living.
The lounge/diner provides an impressive central living space, offering plenty of room for both relaxing and entertaining. The generous proportions allow for distinct seating and dining areas, making this a particularly versatile room for modern lifestyles. Natural light enhances the sense of space, while the layout provides direct access to the property's private outside balcony, an enviable feature providing the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee, or unwind after work during warmer months.
The modern fitted kitchen has been designed with functionality in mind, providing an attractive and practical environment for preparing meals and entertaining. With contemporary fittings and a well-planned layout, the kitchen is ideally suited to both everyday family life and hosting guests.
The accommodation is completed by two excellent double bedrooms, both providing comfortable proportions and flexibility for a variety of requirements. The principal bedroom offers ample space for a substantial range of bedroom furniture, whilst the second double bedroom would work equally well as a child's bedroom, guest room, home office or additional living space depending upon the buyer's needs.
A three-piece family bathroom serves the accommodation and provides all the essential facilities expected within a modern family home.
Externally, the property benefits from a private balcony, providing a valuable extension of the living accommodation and a rare opportunity to enjoy your own outdoor space without the maintenance associated with a private garden.
Residents also have access to attractive communal gardens, offering a pleasant green environment surrounding the development. Further practical benefits include communal drying areas and bicycle storage, adding to the property's convenience and appeal.
LOCATION
The location is a particular highlight. Situated within easy reach of a comprehensive range of local amenities, the property is ideally placed for day-to-day convenience, with shops, services and facilities readily accessible.
Families will particularly appreciate the property's proximity to local schools, with Engayne Primary School approximately 0.2 miles away and Hall Mead School approximately 0.7 miles away, making this an excellent choice for buyers prioritising accessibility to education.
For commuters and those travelling further afield, the property also benefits from easy access to the A127 and M25, providing convenient road connections towards London, Essex and the wider motorway network.
LEASE
A particularly noteworthy benefit of this property is the lease position. The current lease is 81 years; however, the vendors have already paid to extend the lease to 171 years, providing the successful purchaser with the benefit of a substantially extended lease.
Furthermore, the current ground rent is £10 per annum and, following completion of the lease extension, will be reduced to a peppercorn/nil ground rent.
This represents a significant long-term benefit for the incoming purchaser and further enhances the property's appeal.
AGENTS NOTE

THE BERESFORDS VIEW
This is a property that combines the qualities today's buyers are looking for: an enviable Upminster location, excellent local schooling, convenient transport links, contemporary accommodation, outdoor space and the substantial benefit of a vendor-funded lease extension — all offered with NO ONWARD CHAIN.
The combination of two double bedrooms, a generous lounge/diner, modern fitted kitchen, private balcony and communal gardens makes this a particularly versatile home, while the extended 171-year lease and future peppercorn/nil ground rent add an important financial and long-term advantage.
Properties offering this combination of location, accommodation and lease position are sure to attract strong interest. An early internal viewing is therefore highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this superb Upminster home has to offer.
