This compact one-bedroom first-floor flat in Gartons Close is presented chain-free with a long 130-year lease — a straightforward buy for a first-time purchaser or buy-to-let investor. The interior has been recently redecorated and benefits from double-glazed windows and a fitted kitchen, making it ready to move into or let immediately.
At around 430 sq ft the apartment is small and efficiently laid out with a reception room, bedroom and family bathroom. It sits close to Ponders End High Street and Ponders End station, providing convenient shops, amenities and transport links. Several local primary and secondary schools rated Good are within reach, which supports long-term resale or rental demand.
Buyers should note key running considerations: heating is by electric room heaters (no gas central heating), the EPC is rated D, and the glazing is double-glazed but installed before 2002. The development charges an average service charge of approximately £1,400 per year and the area records very high crime and significant deprivation, which may affect insurance and lettings. Communal areas are reported well maintained and the property is offered with no onward chain, which can speed completion.
Overall this is a low-maintenance, newly refreshed flat with a secure long lease and good transport links — suitable for a first-time buyer looking for an affordable entry into EN3 or an investor seeking a compact rental unit, provided they accept the local area challenges and electric heating setup.
