This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in Redwood Gardens offers a practical, move-in-ready option for first-time buyers. The flat benefits from a new 125-year lease, an allocated off-street parking space and an EPC rating of C — useful protections and running-cost indicators for budget-conscious purchasers. Broadband and mobile connectivity are strong, and North Chingford station plus the A406 are both within easy reach, supporting commuting and travel.
Internally the layout is efficient: a large reception room with space for dining, a generous double bedroom with built-in storage and a smaller second bedroom. The kitchen is fitted with basic base and eye-level units and tiled splashbacks; the overall finish is mid-market and presents clear potential to personalise or upgrade.
Buyers should note material running costs and constraints: this is a leasehold property with a service charge around £1,928 annually and ground rent approximately £375. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. The flat is modest in overall size (about 581 sq ft) and the bathroom is compact, so it will suit those prioritising location and affordability over spacious accommodation.
There is a medium flood risk indicated for the area and the building sits in a neighbourhood with higher levels of deprivation than average; both factors are worth checking during surveys and mortgage/insurance enquiries. For buyers seeking an affordable London entry-point with parking, good transport links and straightforward improvement potential, this apartment is a practical option.
