This bright two-double-bedroom Victorian conversion on Lea Bridge Road offers period character and sensible living space across approximately 678 sq ft. High ceilings, sash windows and an exposed brick fireplace give the main reception a distinctive feel, while a modern kitchen and family bathroom make the flat ready to occupy or let.
Sold chain-free via the Modern Method of Auction, the property is best suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a straightforward conversion with rental potential in E10. Lea Bridge Overground, supermarkets and a wide range of local amenities are within easy walking distance, supporting commuter and tenant appeal.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold sale with auction-specific costs and timescales: a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% (minimum £6,600) and a Buyer Information Pack fee of £300 are payable by the purchaser, and completion is expected within 56 days. The mid-terrace building dates from c.1900–1929 and walls are solid brick (no known insulation), which may mean future retrofit or insulation works.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating, double glazing, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband. Downsides include the leasehold tenure, auction fees and accelerated completion requirement, and the property’s location in an area recorded as very deprived—factors affecting mortgage, insurance and long-term value that buyers should check with their lender.
