When will exchange of contracts take place for residential conveyancing in Chalfont St Peter and am I required to attend the solicitors office?

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one round the corner in Chalfont St Peter I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it's only got 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Chalfont St Peter for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you can ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
