A ground-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment in Westleigh Court, positioned a few feet from Wanstead High Street with views towards the church and High Road. The flat is part of a warden-controlled development offering communal facilities: residents’ lounge, well-tended garden, laundry, visitor suite and a 24-hour monitored corded assistance system, designed for independent older living.
The accommodation is compact and practical: a reception room open to the kitchen, one double bedroom, shower room and a deep entrance storage cupboard. The property is chain free and has double glazing; main heating is electric storage heaters and the kitchen and wall-mounted heater are dated and will benefit from updating.
Important ownership details: leasehold with 89 years remaining (original 125-year term from 1988). Service/management charges are to be confirmed and purchasers should allow for those and any guest/visitor booking fees. Council Tax Band C and EPC E53 are noted.
This is best suited to a buyer seeking low-maintenance, central Wanstead retirement living with easy access to shops, cafés and two Central Line stations. It offers convenience and on-site support but does require some modernisation and careful consideration of lease length and ongoing service costs.
