A compact first-floor flat located opposite a leafy green and a short walk from Woodford Central Line station. The apartment has a modern kitchen and shower room, a balcony and includes a garage en bloc — practical extras for a first purchase in this area. The long lease (955 years) and chain-free sale simplify moving and future financing.
At around 436 sq ft the accommodation is best suited to first-time buyers or investors seeking rental potential rather than those needing generous living space. Heating is electric underfloor, which keeps rooms cosy but means reliance on electricity for warmth. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, which may matter for home working.
There is an average service charge of £2,400 and a small ground rent of £195 — factor these into monthly costs. The building dates from the 1950s–60s with double glazing installed at an unknown date; overall maintenance appears typical for a mid-century block. The flat’s proximity to good local schools, the High Road amenities and excellent mobile signal add everyday convenience and long-term appeal.
