Chain-free three-bedroom flat, approx. 817 sq ft
Wood Street Overground nearby — direct Central London links
Seconds from Epping Forest and Walthamstow Village amenities
54 years remaining on lease — lenders may refuse mortgages
Low ground rent (£50) but lease length is material concern
Higher local crime and area deprivation — impacts resale/rental
1930s Art Deco block with period character and solid brick walls
Double glazing pre-2002; likely scope for modernisation/refurbishment
This chain-free three-bedroom flat on Wood Street offers generous 817 sq ft living in a 1930s Art Deco block, a short walk from Wood Street Overground for direct City links. Bright, traditional rooms and a separate kitchen give practical family-style layout; nearby Epping Forest and Walthamstow Village add desirable outdoors and local-café appeal.
Important practical notes are clear: the lease has about 54 years remaining, which may limit mortgage options and will require attention from any buyer. Ground rent is low at £50, but lease length is the main material constraint. The property is in a higher-crime, more deprived area, so buyers should factor local safety and resale considerations into their plans.
The building retains period character with solid brick construction and pre-2002 double glazing; the home is heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators. The flat suits first-time buyers or investors ready to manage a short lease and possible modernisation — potential for value uplift exists if lease extension and targeted refurbishment are pursued.
