Practical commuter flat with parking and quick rail access.
Allocated off-street parking included
This one-bedroom first-floor flat offers a straightforward, low-maintenance home for a first-time buyer or commuter seeking easy transport links and allocated parking. The reception room and double bedroom receive good natural light; the block is described as well maintained and the apartment is ready for immediate occupation.
Practical features include an allocated off-street parking space, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, double glazing, and an EPC rating of D. The property sits about a 15-minute walk from Slade Green station, making regular rail services into central London accessible for daily commuters.
There are important constraints to note. The lease has approximately 61 years remaining (reported as 65 years), which is likely to limit mortgage options and may deter many lenders. The wider area records high crime levels and significant deprivation, which buyers should consider carefully for long-term suitability or letting potential.
Internally there is scope to modernise the kitchen and bathroom to add value. The building’s construction and older single-skin walls suggest limited insulation — further energy improvements could reduce running costs and improve comfort. Prospective purchasers should obtain mortgage and legal advice about lease length and factor refurbishment and safety concerns into their decision.
