Summary - Flat 2 Mallinson Court, 5, Brockway Close E11 4TG
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact home close to Central Line and Wanstead Flats.
Chain free one-bedroom ground-floor flat, 391 sq ft
A practical, chain-free one-bedroom ground-floor flat in Leytonstone, ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking transport convenience and straightforward living. The flat offers a bright living/dining room, a separate fitted kitchen with a freestanding cooker, and a double bedroom with mirrored fitted wardrobes. Residents' off-street parking and a secure entry phone system add everyday convenience.
This property is compact at about 391 sq ft and presents a clear opportunity to personalise and modernise. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, and the interior shows some dated finishes that will benefit from updating to improve comfort and value. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow — important if you work from home or stream frequently.
Practical ownership notes: the flat is leasehold with 93 years remaining, a ground rent of £250 pa and an average service charge of £1,387 pa. The area has excellent transport links — Leytonstone Central Line and nearby Overground are within walking distance — and Wanstead Flats offers nearby green space. Be aware the local area records higher crime levels and is relatively deprived, which may influence resale or rental demand.
Overall, this is a budget-conscious entry into East London with strong transport access and immediate rental potential, best suited to buyers prepared to modernise the interior and accept the limitations of electric heating and slow broadband.
