A bright, chain-free two-bedroom ground-floor apartment in the modern Foundry Gate development, offered with allocated parking and two private courtyards. The open-plan kitchen–living–dining room creates flexible everyday living, while a brand-new boiler and double glazing improve efficiency and comfort. At about 660 sq ft, the layout suits first-time buyers, downsizers or buy-to-let investors seeking a ready-to-rent home close to good transport links.
Practical details are straightforward: a 103-year lease, mains gas heating with radiators, and typical communal upkeep funded by an average service charge of £1,400 and small ground rent of £250. The block was built in the early 2000s and benefits from insulated cavity walls and standard ceiling heights, but expect usual maintenance responsibilities associated with leasehold flats.
Location is a key strength. The flat is within walking distance of Theobalds Grove and Waltham Cross stations for direct London services, and road links to the M25 and A10 are close by. Local amenities, including the Pavilions Shopping Centre, shops and eateries, plus nearby Lee Valley green space, add everyday convenience. Several primary and secondary schools rated Good are nearby, supporting family buyers.
Be candid about context: the neighbourhood scores as a deprived, higher-crime area, which may affect long-term capital-growth expectations and some buyers’ sense of security. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and flood risk is low. Overall this is a practical, well-presented home that offers immediate occupancy or rental potential, balanced by leasehold costs and local area challenges.
