Summary - 201 RIVERSIDE CLOSE LONDON E5 9SU
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, well-located flat with communal garden and allocated parking.
Top-floor one-bedroom apartment, bright reception room
A bright top-floor one-bedroom apartment in a peaceful cul-de-sac, ideal for first-time buyers seeking simple city living with easy transport links. The reception room receives good natural light and the property benefits from neutral finishes and wood-effect flooring throughout. Residents enjoy a well-kept communal garden and allocated off-street parking.
Practical details are straightforward: the flat is leasehold with an exceptionally long term remaining (954 years) and offered chain free, making purchase simple. Service charges average £1,920 per year and heating is via electric storage heaters, which can be more costly than gas in winter. The gross internal area is compact (452 sq ft) and will suit those wanting a manageable, low-maintenance home or a buy-to-let.
Location is a strong selling point — a short walk to Clapton Overground with quick city connections, plus close proximity to the River Lea, Walthamstow Marshes and local amenities. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent. Note the local area shows higher deprivation and average crime levels, so check neighbourhood details if this is important.
Overall this apartment offers a practical, well-located entry point to the market: convenient transport, outside space, parking and no onward chain. Buyers should budget for service charges and the higher running costs associated with electric storage heating, and expect modest internal space typical of a one-bedroom city flat.
