This ground-floor one-bedroom flat in William Guy Gardens offers a contemporary, ready-to-live-in interior and sensible living space for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The open-plan reception and fitted kitchen make everyday living straightforward, while large windows bring good natural light into the medium-sized rooms. At about 511 sq ft, the layout provides clear storage and a separate shower room for convenience.
Practical details are favourable: a long lease of 96 years, low reported ground rent (£10), double glazing and mains gas central heating. Transport links are strong with Bromley-by-Bow station and multiple bus routes nearby, plus local supermarkets and amenities within easy reach, which supports both commuting and rental demand.
Buyers should note a few material points. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, so some elements may reflect that era; the double-glazing installation date is unknown. The local area is described as deprived with average crime statistics, which may affect resale or tenant perception. As a leasehold flat, future purchasers should check service charges and any upcoming building works.
Overall this is a practical, well-located flat with contemporary presentation and clear commuter appeal. It suits someone seeking an affordable entry into East London or a straightforward rental purchase, provided they carry out the usual leasehold and building condition checks.
