Summary - 21A DAMES ROAD LONDON E7 0DS
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Victorian two-bed with garden and Elizabeth Line access — chain free.
Chain free; brand-new lease on completion
This ground-floor, two-bedroom garden flat sits in a Victorian terrace on Dames Road, a short distance from Forest Gate station and the Elizabeth Line for fast central London links. With 775 sq ft of accommodation, bay-fronted living space and a private garden, the apartment offers a rare combination of period character and outdoor space on one level — attractive to first-time buyers and investors alike.
The property is offered chain free with a brand-new lease on completion (approx. 124 years) and a peppercorn ground rent. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed. Service charge is around £850 a year and council tax is low, helping keep ongoing costs manageable.
The flat will suit buyers who want a comfortable home now with scope to improve. Some updating is needed: the property reflects its age (c.1900–1929), the brick walls are likely uninsulated and interior fixtures will benefit from modernisation. The garden and potential to rework space offer practical value for future improvement.
Location strengths include quick Elizabeth Line access to central London, a wide range of local shops, cafes and services, and several well-rated nearby schools. The surrounding area is ethnically diverse and busy; levels of local deprivation are above average, and neighbourhood crime is average. Overall this is a practical, characterful purchase with clear potential for value uplift through refurbishment.
