Situated on Wanstead High Street, this generous two-bedroom apartment occupies the second floor of a gated, modern development and offers an unusually large internal area for its type. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen space is bright and dual-aspect, with wood flooring and park views, while the principal bedroom includes an en suite for added convenience. A communal courtyard provides private outdoor space in a bustling High Street setting.
A notable practical benefit is the separate basement room, fitted with power, lighting and a phone point — well-suited to a home office, studio or secure storage. Long leasehold security (977 years) and share of freehold tenure reduce long-term ownership uncertainty. Transport links are strong with Wanstead and Snaresbrook Central Line stations nearby and quick routes to the A12/A406.
Buyers should be aware of a few material considerations. The development uses electric underfloor heating and electricity is the main fuel, which may affect running costs versus gas-heated homes. Annual service charge and ground rent are payable (c. £1,800 service charge; £200 ground rent). The local area records higher-than-average crime levels, which some buyers will want to investigate further.
This apartment will suit buyers seeking a high‑street location with flexible space — especially those who need a dedicated workspace or who value long lease security. It also offers potential for investors wanting a well-located rental in a very affluent part of E11, though running costs and service charges should be factored into yield calculations.
