Set on a quiet residential turning in Upton Park, this first-floor Victorian conversion offers a compact, well-presented one-bedroom flat ideal for a single occupant or couple. The reception room is generously proportioned and the property benefits from double glazing, a fitted kitchen and contemporary bathroom finishes. Transport links are strong, with Upton Park station and frequent buses on Green Street nearby, providing fast routes to Stratford and Canning Town.
Practical points are clear: the flat is leasehold with 81 years remaining, which will need attention and likely renewal costs in the near future. Constructed circa 1900–1929 with solid brick walls and no assumed cavity insulation, the property may require energy-efficiency upgrades; the current EPC is D (62). Council tax is low and broadband and mobile signals are excellent.
The area provides abundant local amenities — cafes, grocery shops and takeaways are within easy walking distance — and a range of good and outstanding schools nearby. For buyers seeking an affordable central-London foothold this flat offers immediate rental or owner-occupier potential, though budget for lease extension and possible insulation or heating improvements should be factored in.
This is a straightforward, compact period conversion with character features and clear value for buyers prepared to manage the lease and modest retrofit works. It suits a first-time buyer or investor looking for a well-located, affordable property close to strong transport links.
