Summary - 184, Riverside Close E5 9SU
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, sunlit flat by green spaces and fast transport links.
Two double bedrooms, bright dual-aspect living space
This quietly located first-floor flat offers bright, practical living just seconds from the River Lea and leafy communal gardens. The dual-aspect living space and two double bedrooms make it a straightforward, compact home for a first-time buyer or investor seeking rental potential.
The apartment benefits from extensive built-in storage, double glazing, and contemporary fittings throughout, with superb transport links via nearby Clapton Overground for swift City and West End access. The lease is long (953 years) and the property is chain-free, simplifying purchase logistics.
Notable practical points: heating is via electric storage heaters and the kitchen shows signs of wear and will need renovation and flooring replacement. Annual service charge is around £1,920 and the area scores as relatively deprived, which may affect resale timing and local amenities. Flood risk is very low and council tax levels are affordable.
This is a sensible, affordable entry into E5: compact but well-lit, straightforward to update, and positioned for convenient commutes and green-space access. Buyers should budget for kitchen works and ongoing service charge costs when assessing value.
