This ground-floor one-bedroom flat on Haslemere Road offers a practical, chain-free entry into the Ilford market. The reception room and double bedroom are well-proportioned for the size, and the property includes a private rear garden of about 54'—a rare outside space for a ground-floor flat.
Location is a clear strength: Seven Kings station (Elizabeth Line) is within easy reach, making commutes to central London straightforward. Local shops, cafés and a range of schools are close by, and broadband and mobile signal are reported as strong.
Important to note: the lease is approximately 60 years. Many mortgage lenders may refuse loans on leases of this length unless extended, so buyers should check financing options and the cost of lease extension. The flat also needs modernising throughout and shows signs of potential damp/mould in the bedroom area; budgets for renovation and any remedial works should be factored in.
Ownership sits as a share of the freehold, which can give future owners more control over management. For first-time buyers prepared to refurbish, or investors able to buy with cash or secure specialist finance, this property presents clear upside through improvement or lease negotiation.
