Spacious one-bed with two terraces and Elizabeth Line access.
Top (third) floor with two large private balconies
Top-floor, chain-free one-bedroom apartment in Ilford town centre, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking space and transport links. The apartment offers two large private balconies, a generous lounge/diner and a modern fitted kitchen — practical living with outdoor space that’s rare for a one-bed.
The flat benefits from a long 115-year lease, secure entry, lift access, bike storage and a communal rooftop garden. Ilford Station (Elizabeth Line) is within easy walking distance, giving fast connections to the City, Canary Wharf and Heathrow — strong for commuting or future resale.
Buyers should note the building’s running costs: an annual service charge of around £3,000 and ground rent of £150. Heating is electric via room heaters (no communal gas), which can mean higher energy use compared with gas-heated homes. Crime levels in the immediate area are reported above average, though the property is on a higher floor and has secure entry.
Overall this apartment offers roomy, ready-to-move-in accommodation with long lease security and excellent transport links — a practical starter home or buy-to-let with clear running-cost considerations.
