Summary - Forest View Road, London E12 5HX
2 bed 1 bath Ground Flat
Refurbished two-bedroom with quick Elizabeth Line access.
Chain free with a long lease (114 years)
A recently refurbished two-bedroom ground floor flat on Forest View Road, offered chain free with a long lease of 114 years. At about 540 sq ft, the accommodation includes a lounge, fitted kitchen, shower room and two bedrooms — ready to move into or let straight away. The location is a standout: a short walk to Manor Park station and the Elizabeth Line for fast central London access.
Practical running costs are clear: mains gas central heating with a modern boiler, double glazing, an average service charge of £1,360 and a low ground rent. Council tax is described as affordable. These factors, together with the long lease and chain-free sale, make the flat suitable for first-time buyers or investors seeking a straightforward purchase with immediate rental potential.
Buyers should note the property’s small overall size and its setting within an area with high crime levels and very high deprivation indices. While the flat has been refurbished, prospective purchasers are advised to verify services and appliances and factor in possible additional leasehold fees (e.g., pack costs) before committing. No flood risk is recorded for this address.
Overall, this is a compact, economical London flat that offers excellent transport links and immediate usability. It suits someone prioritising commuter convenience and low-entry cost rather than large living space or a low-crime neighbourhood.
