**GUIDE PRICE £350,000 - £375,000**

Presenting to the market this two DOUBLE bedroom first floor retirement apartment. You will be forgiven if you are not familiar with this over 55's residential development as it is discreetly tucked away from Main Road, Gidea Park. Perfectly positioned set back from the shopping parade this development offers everything you could be looking for. Stunning communal grounds with gardens that are well maintained for the residents to enjoy, communal lounge with kitchen facilities, regular entertainment, hairdressers, residents parking and overall excellent maintained communal halls with several seating areas scattered throughout. 

The apartment itself is located on the first floor and is one of only a few two bedrooms that the development has to offer! There is convenient lift access or a wide low step stairwell. 

The rooms are spacious with a 19ft lounge/diner offering views of the communal grounds, separate kitchen with double oven and gas hob, modern design step in shower room, plus the home has the benefit of newly fitted carpets within the living areas. 

Each room also has emergency pull cords in case of the requirement of assistance from the developments staff. 

The lease sits at 100 years and charges are set at £300.00 monthly inclusive of water/window cleaning/garden maintenance/security cameras/24hrs call line/building insurance/communal areas heating & maintenance

I am advised that many of the residents utilise the communal spaces but also praise that they can choose as and when their social activities occur. 

The accessibility to Romford is a mere bus journey away, plus Gidea Park Elizabeth Line is within a short walking distance. 

This property is being offered to the market CHAIN FREE and should you wish to view I invite you to contact us today.

Surface Water Flood Risk
Unlike flooding from rivers, surface water flooding can happen many miles from a river, often in places that people wouldn’t expect because it’s a long way from a river or stream – it happens simply because there is nowhere else for the rainwater to go. Risk ratings are measured as:
High Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 30 (3.3%) in any one year.
Medium Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 100 (1.0%) in any one year.
Low Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.
Very Low Risk - an area in which the risk is below 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year

About Emma Wallington YOPA

Emma Wallington, Area Sales Manager
I have worked within the industry for just under 19 years and within this time have undertaken almost every role that you can within estate agency. At the heart of my business mindset is customer service and ensuring that my clients and buyers receive the best possible experience throughout their move.

Having always worked full time I took the opportunity to become self-employed in 2021 after 18 years of High Street agency to allow a more flexible work / home life balance to ensure that I can also focus on my other passion, my family I have two children who are my world and have lived in Collier Row with my partner since moving from the family home back in 2005.

The ability to service clients within my own community is a fantastic opportunity for me, having lived in Romford for over 10 years both my children attend the local schools and I love the fact that I can visit both the hassle and bustle of Romfords Town centre or a bespoke cafe within minutes from my home.

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.

In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:

avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.

min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
