Bright, compact and move-in ready, this top-floor one-bedroom apartment suits a first-time buyer seeking easy commuting and nearby green space. The open-plan kitchen/lounge and large windows create an airy feel, while loft access adds useful storage for a small home. Off-street parking and a neat communal garden are practical bonuses rarely found at this price point.
The property benefits from a long lease (112 years) and competitive running costs for a leasehold flat, but note there is an annual service charge of around £1,200 and a ground rent of £100. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than central gas, which can affect running costs compared with gas-heated homes.
Location is a clear strength: Broxbourne Station, the A10 and M25 are all within easy reach for commuters, and the River Lea riverside trails offer quiet outdoor space moments from the front door. Local schools are well-regarded, making the area popular with young families and professionals.
The apartment’s modest footprint (approximately 363 sq ft) means it suits singles, couples or investors rather than buyers needing larger living space. Overall, this is a tidy, well-presented home with strong transport links and simple maintenance — ideal for someone wanting a low-hassle first home or a commuter buy-to-let opportunity.
