Summary - Flat 1, 85, Fairlop Road, Leytonstone E11 1BE
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free two-bedroom with private parking and excellent transport links.
Two double bedrooms with generous main bedroom
Set within an elegant period townhouse, this chain-free lower-ground garden flat offers practical living and strong transport links in Leytonstone. The flat has two double bedrooms, a spacious reception, a modern fitted kitchen and a south-facing private garden that is unusual for an inner-city terrace. A long lease and share of freehold give ownership security, and an allocated off-street parking space adds everyday convenience.
The layout is compact but well planned across approximately 700 sq ft, making the property suitable for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking reliable rental demand near the Central Line. Leytonstone Underground station is only 0.1 miles away, with Overground links and local buses close by. High ceilings and period details add character, while the private entrance and garden create a sense of independence not often found in flats at this price point.
Buyers should note this is a lower-ground flat, so some rooms receive less direct light than raised-ground apartments. The building’s solid-brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, which may mean higher heating costs unless improved. There is a service charge (approx. £3,000) to budget for, and the accommodation would benefit from light updating in places to maximise value and rental appeal.
Overall this property is a practical, well-located opportunity: a secure long lease, outdoor space and parking combine with quick commutes to central London. It suits purchasers who value transport convenience, outdoor amenity and period character, and who are comfortable planning modest improvement works to personalise the home.
