Summary - Flat 18 Flanders House, 12, Defoe Road N16 0EG
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Chain-free two-bedroom flat near Stoke Newington amenities and transport links.
Full-width private patio garden — unusual for a flat
Set just off Church Street, this chain-free two-bedroom flat offers a practical starter home with genuine outdoor space. The open-plan living/kitchen stretches across the rear and opens onto a full-width private patio garden — a rare find for flat living and ideal for summertime dining or container gardening.
Internally the layout suits modern life: two double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a contemporary fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and a wine cooler. The property is bright, double-glazed and sits in a 2003–2006 development with secure fob entry and an EPC rating of C.
Important running costs and specifics are plain: the lease has 103 years remaining, service charge averages £2,468 pa and ground rent is £535 pa. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more costly than communal gas systems. The property is timber-frame construction (as-built) and designed for inner-city living.
For first-time buyers this home is well placed — near Stoke Newington Station, frequent buses and the shops, cafés and parks around Church Street and Stokey High Street. Nearby schools include William Patten and Grazebrook (both rated Outstanding), making the location attractive for a young family ready to move in and personalise the space.
Buyers should factor in ongoing charges and the electric heating when budgeting, but the combination of long lease, private garden and central location delivers practical value and strong everyday convenience.
