Bright, well-presented two-bedroom first-floor maisonette in the sought-after Commonwealth Estate, finished to an immaculate contemporary standard. The apartment offers a generous living room with bay window, a modern kitchen, and comfortable bedroom sizes across approximately 859 sq ft — unusually roomy for a two-bed in this area. A share of freehold and an exceptionally long 900-year lease reduce long-term ownership costs and uncertainty. Off-street parking is a rare practical plus for the location.
The property sits about 0.7 miles from Ilford Station, giving fast, frequent rail links into central London — ideal for commuting first-time buyers or investors seeking reliable rental demand. Local schools include several well-regarded options, and nearby shops, bus routes and green spaces make this an easy everyday location. Broadband and mobile signals are strong and crime levels are very low.
Be clear about the limits: outdoor amenity is minimal (small rear garden and typical street outlook) and the flat occupies the first floor above a shared entrance and stairwell. Proximity to rail and road corridors brings excellent transport but may also mean intermittent noise; a viewing at different times is recommended. Service charge and ground rent are shown as nil, but buyers should verify all running costs during conveyancing.
This home suits a first-time buyer wanting move-in-ready accommodation with low-tenure risk, or an investor seeking a straightforward let in a well-connected part of Ilford. The combination of generous internal space, long lease and parking will attract attention; practical limitations around outdoor space and potential transport noise are the main trade-offs.
