Outside - grounds mostly laid to lawn and shrub beds, with the odd tree here and there. As stated, there is plenty of parking space. The apartment block is located at the end of a no-through road, so there is no traffic. It is incredibly quiet and peaceful here. However, it is still a London suburb and there is still the faint, distant hum of traffic, trains and planes. Though, in the summer you can sleep with windows open and not be disturbed by the usual noise of an urban area. The neighbourhood is pleasant, and the neighbours are pleasant and friendly too, and all generally keep and eye out for each other, which makes living here easy and carefree.

Hackbridge, although being within easy reach of the city, is but a stone's throw away from the Surrey and Kent countryside, and there is easy access to the M25.

All in all, for the price, you are getting a lot of property, in an up and coming area, with easy access to parks, schools, shops and public transport. A similar place in other areas of London would cost considerably more, but you wouldn't necessarily get a lot more.
