This bright two-double-bedroom first-floor maisonette offers practical space and a long lease in a quiet cul-de-sac. With 933 years remaining and no service charge, the tenure is unusually secure for a flat, making it suitable for buyers seeking long-term stability or a first-step on the ladder.
The accommodation includes a feature reception with parquet flooring, a fitted kitchen, bathroom, loft access for storage, and a private, mature rear garden with a storage shed. A single garage and driveway parking add everyday convenience in this inner-city location with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband.
Constructed mid-20th century, the property is in generally good condition but shows typical era features: double glazing installed before 2002 and cavity walls likely without added insulation. The garden will need routine maintenance; buyers seeking a fully modern, highly insulated home may want to budget for upgrades.
Local schools rated Good and convenient access to Hainault and Grange Hill Central Line stations support family life and commuting. Low local crime, very affluent area classification and easy access to buses and local amenities add to the appeal. Ground rent is modest at £75 per year and council tax is moderate.
