Set on the first floor of a 1930s block, this two-double-bedroom flat offers a straightforward entry into London ownership or a rental opportunity. The property is chain free, has a large lounge, separate fitted kitchen and sits directly opposite a well-kept park — strong selling points for families and tenants who value outdoor space and quick commutes.
Location is a core strength: Burnt Oak Northern Line station and local shops are a very short walk away, making daily travel and essentials easy. The building benefits from communal gardens, a secure entry phone system and a low service charge, which helps running costs remain manageable for first-time buyers or buy-to-let landlords.
Be clear about the trade-offs. The area scores as deprived with above-average crime rates; broadband speeds are reported slow. The block is of solid-brick 1930s construction with assumed no wall insulation and some internal areas are dated, so the flat will benefit from updating and energy-efficiency improvements. It is leasehold — buyers should check lease length and terms.
For investors, the flat’s size (about 636 sq ft) and proximity to transport suggest solid rental demand, but factor in possible upgrade costs and local area considerations. For first-time buyers, this is an affordable, commuter-friendly starter with scope to add value through modernisation.
