A compact one-bedroom ground-floor flat positioned right by Epping Forest, ideal for a first step on the property ladder or a straightforward buy-to-let. The apartment includes a living room, fitted kitchen, bedroom with en-suite shower and benefits from a long 135-year lease and an en-bloc garage currently used for storage.
The building sits a short walk from Loughton Central Line station and the High Road, with pleasant communal lawns and direct access to forest walks and local pubs. Service charge is low at approximately £105 per month and broadband speeds are reported as fast, making the flat practical for modern living.
Buyers should note this is being sold via an online auction with a non-refundable Buyer’s Premium (3.6% including VAT, subject to a minimum of £6,600) plus a legal pack fee of £396 and additional reservation and AML/proof-of-funds costs. These fees are payable on completion of a successful bid and should be reviewed in the auction legal pack before bidding.
The accommodation is small at around 360 sq ft and on the ground floor, which suits those wanting easy access but may suit fewer uses than a larger property. Crime levels in the area are noted as above average — worth factoring into commuting choices or lettings considerations. Interested parties must review the legal pack and complete their own due diligence before proceeding.
