Set within the Bolingbroke Park development, this two-bedroom, west-facing apartment offers bright open-plan living with floor-to-ceiling windows and a balcony overlooking communal gardens. The high-gloss kitchen with integrated appliances and a utility cupboard gives practical, modern finishes that suit first-time buyers seeking a move-in-ready home. The principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite and balcony access; the second bedroom has built-in storage.
Practical running costs are clear: communal heating and hot water are provided, the service charge is below average at £324.85, ground rent is modest at £100, and there is a sinking fund to cover major works long-term. An EWS1 certificate (B1) is available for the block and additional independent review is being undertaken where required.
Important considerations: this is a leasehold shared-ownership property (114 years remaining on the lease) and buyers must meet eligibility for shared ownership or arrange full-purchase finance. Parking is not guaranteed — off-street spaces may be available to rent. Council Tax sits at Band E (above average) and local recorded crime levels are high, which may influence suitability for some buyers.
Location is a strong selling point: a short walk to Cockfosters Tube (Piccadilly Line), nearby shops, cafés and green spaces, plus several well-rated primary and secondary schools within easy reach. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the development includes gated communal gardens, play areas, lakes and woodland — useful for families and commuters alike.
