This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offers an accessible entry into Stratford living with a private patio and an open-plan lounge-kitchen ideal for modern city life. Located a short walk from Stratford High Street, DLR links and Westfield, it suits a first-time buyer seeking proximity to transport, shops and the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
Buyers should note the lease has 81 years remaining — below ideal for mortgage longevity — so lease extension will be needed and should be budgeted for. The property is currently shared ownership and will be staircased as part of the sale, which can add time and extra solicitor work to completion. Annual service charge is £3,350 and is reviewed yearly.
The flat is constructed in the mid-2000s with double glazing and electric heating via room heaters; it feels modern but is compact at about 514 sq ft. There is no allocated parking (on-street only) and the immediate area scores high for crime and local deprivation, facts that may influence buyers’ choices and insurance costs.
For a buyer prepared to manage the lease extension and shared-ownership process, this apartment presents a convenient, chain-free route into the Stratford market with immediate transport and amenity benefits. It works well as a starter home or a buy-to-let purchase for those aware of the local challenges.
