Summary - 180, Queens Road, BUCKHURST HILL IG9 5BD
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain‑free 1‑bed near Central Line and local cafés.
Large reception room and bedroom, approx. 743 sq ft
This first-floor one‑bedroom apartment sits above a parade of shops on Queens Road, placing cafés, shops and Buckhurst Hill Central Line station within easy walking distance. The accommodation is notable for its large reception room and bedroom, generous square footage (approx. 743 sq ft) and a newly granted 125‑year lease — attractive for buyers wanting long leasehold security. Chain free sale speeds up completion.
Practical features include double glazing and a gas boiler with radiators, though the heating has not been tested and will need standard pre-purchase checks. There is scope to extend or reconfigure the layout subject to gaining planning and building consents (STPP), offering potential to increase value for an investor or owner-occupier prepared to manage permissions.
Buyers should note this is a high‑street setting with no private rear garden and limited external amenity. The building is of solid brick construction from the 1930–49 era with assumed lack of cavity insulation, so energy-efficiency improvements and some refurbishment may be needed. The area records above‑average crime statistics — worth considering for those prioritising low-crime streets.
Overall, the property suits a first‑time buyer or investor seeking a well‑located, chain‑free one-bedroom with scope to add value through remodelling or consenting an extension. Expect routine checks, possible refurbishment and planning time if pursuing alterations.
