Two bedrooms with separate reception and kitchen
A compact, period ground-floor flat with its own entrance and private rear garden, offered chain free and with a very long lease (924 years). The property retains a Victorian red-brick façade and period character inside, while practical features include double glazing, gas central heating and an EPC rating of C.
The layout suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors: reception room, separate kitchen, two bedrooms and a family bathroom across a modest 779 sq ft footprint. Lea Bridge (Greater Anglia) station is around 0.2 miles away, providing quick rail links and easy commuting. Council Tax Band B and a nominal ground rent of £15 p.a.; no service charge.
Buyers should note material negatives honestly: the local area has higher crime levels and is classified as deprived, and the property sits in a medium flood-risk zone. Interior photos show some cosmetic wear (peeling paint) and the original solid-brick walls are likely uninsulated, so buyers should allow a modest budget for redecoration and possible insulation improvements.
Overall, this ground-floor period flat offers a rare combination of private garden, long lease and immediate access to transport, making it a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer wanting an affordable entry into Leyton or an investor seeking an easily managed let. Factor in local area challenges and minor maintenance needs when considering offers.
