Step into a compact but well-located two-bedroom apartment on Forest Road, offered chain free and ready for renovation. The flat sits on the first floor and includes an open-plan kitchen/reception that opens onto a private balcony of over 16ft, giving useful outdoor space for a central-London property. Resident off-street parking adds a rare convenience for the area.
Internally the accommodation totals about 478 sq ft, with two bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom. Modern fittings and double glazing are already in place, but the property is described as needing renovation — it’s best seen as a blank canvas for a buyer who wants to improve value and personalise finishes. Broadband speeds are slow, which may affect home working until upgraded.
Practical running costs include an average service charge of around £2,300 and a small ground rent of £50. The flat is leasehold with approximately 85 years remaining — a material factor for mortgage or future-sale planning. Council tax is described as affordable and local crime levels are low.
Location is a clear strength: Leytonstone station is about a 15-minute walk, offering Central line access into central London. Local schools include several rated Good and one Outstanding, and green space at Epping Forest and Walthamstow Wetlands is within easy reach. This apartment suits first-time buyers seeking a budget entry into the area or investors targeting renovation uplift.
