Bright one-bedroom conversion set on Waldenshaw Road, offering a compact, practical home close to local shops and transport. At about 484 sq ft, the flat suits a first-time buyer or couple wanting a London base with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The building combines Victorian exterior character with a modern loft-style interior and oak floors.
Practical points are clear: the property is all-electric with room heaters rather than central gas heating, and double glazing is present though installation date is unknown. The lease has 124 years remaining and ground rent is a modest £250 per year. Council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs.
Walkable to the High Street and the train station, the location gives easy access to shops, cafes and green spaces, and nearby schools have generally good Ofsted ratings. The neighbourhood is inner-city cosmopolitan and popular with tech workers, but local crime statistics are higher than average, which some buyers will want to consider.
This is a straightforward, well-located flat with refurbishment potential for someone seeking a manageable London property. It’s best for buyers who accept an electric-heated flat and want to be close to amenities and transport rather than seeking a turnkey luxury finish.
