This top-floor one-bedroom flat offers a straightforward entry to the London market with a long 139-year lease and immediate vacant possession. Located in a mid-20th-century purpose-built block, the apartment benefits from large windows, good natural light and a pleasant outlook over mature trees and a communal forecourt.
With 442 sq ft of accommodation, the layout is compact and practical: hallway, lounge, double bedroom, kitchen and bathroom. The property already has gas central heating and double glazing, and the service charge is below average at £920 per year — all factors that make this attractive to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a low-hassle purchase.
There is clear renovation potential: neutral decor provides a blank canvas, and modest improvements to the kitchen and bathroom would add value. Buyers should note the building is of mid-century system-built construction with no confirmed wall insulation, which could mean higher heating costs and potential upgrade work. Broadband speeds are average and the surrounding area scores as deprived, though local schools and transport links are good.
Practical positives include a long lease, no onward chain, communal parking/forecourt and close walking distance to Leytonstone tube and key road links (A406/M11/M25). The flat is offered as-is; buyers should arrange their own checks on services, structure and insulation if planning substantial refurbishment.
