Guide price £325,000–£350,000 for a bright two-bedroom first-floor apartment with a long lease and low running costs. Set in a well-maintained modern block, the flat offers a spacious living room with a Juliet balcony overlooking communal greenery and a separate, fully fitted kitchen for everyday practicality.
Practical features include a boarded loft for storage, a private garage and off-street parking, gas central heating, double glazing, and a resident-managed share of freehold with approximately 953 years remaining. The property is offered chain free and has an affordable service charge of around £150 per month and a small ground rent of £50 per year.
Location is a key benefit: Sands Way sits in Woodford Green (IG8) within walking distance of Roding Valley and Woodford Central Line stations for direct Central Line access, plus local shops, parks and reputable schools. This mix of connectivity and green outlooks makes the apartment well suited to first-time buyers, downsizers, or buy-to-let investors looking for low maintenance and long lease security.
Buyers should note some local constraints: the immediate area records above-average crime and broadband speeds are only average. The building dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s, so prospective purchasers should check any communal maintenance records and inspect for modernisation needs inside. Lease and service details should be confirmed by your solicitor before exchange.
