This purpose-built, two-bedroom first-floor flat offers a practical layout for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The reception opens to a small balcony and benefits from natural light; the master includes an en-suite. Communal parking and a long-sounding lease are attractive on paper, and the property is offered chain free for a swift sale.
Location is a clear strength: a short walk to David Lloyd Sports Centre, Enfield Town shops and local rail links, plus several well-rated primary and secondary schools nearby. The block is modern (built 2003–2006) with double glazing and a tidy external appearance, matching a commuter or young-family lifestyle.
Buyers should note a number of practical drawbacks. Heating is by electric storage heaters rather than gas, broadband speeds are reported very slow, and the neighbourhood records higher crime levels than average. Lease information is inconsistent in the paperwork: while a 125-year lease from 2006 is referenced, other notes state only around 81 years remain — this will require urgent clarification or a renewal premium. Communal parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis rather than a dedicated space.
Overall this is a sensible, well-located flat with clear potential for enhancement and rental appeal, but it requires informed buyers: check lease documentation, service charges, heating costs, and local safety measures before committing.
