This bright two-bedroom apartment sits in a modern gated development on Waleorde Road, offering a practical first-home in Zone 1/2 with easy links to Central London. The open-plan living space, large private balcony and full-height windows create a light, airy feel; an integrated kitchen, built-in wardrobes and generous storage make day-to-day living straightforward. An air conditioner adds summer comfort and the lift, secure bike storage and CCTV add convenience and security.
The flat is sold on a healthy lease of approximately 143 years and is a sensible long-term buy. Note the property is on a community heating scheme and the current service charge is around £3,~73 per month (circa £4,476pa), with ground rent at £450pa — both factors to include in affordability calculations. The apartment is currently tenanted but can be offered with vacant possession, which may suit both owner-occupiers and buy-to-let purchasers.
Be candid about the location: the immediate neighbourhood is busy and recorded as having above-average crime and high deprivation indices, balanced by excellent transport links, plentiful shops, cafes and local amenities. For a first-time buyer seeking a ready-to-live-in, low-maintenance flat close to central London, this property represents a practical and well-located option, provided you accommodate the ongoing service and heating costs.
