Set on the first floor of a small block on Cairo Road, this one-bedroom flat offers an accessible entry into Walthamstow living. The open-plan living/dining room is bright and practical, while the double bedroom includes fitted mirrored wardrobes for useful storage. With 151 years remaining on the lease and no onward chain, the property is straightforward to buy or let.
The flat benefits from a communal garden and a compact separate kitchen, making it low-maintenance for a single occupant or couple. Practical details include double glazing (installed before 2002) and electric storage heating—suitable for occasional use but less efficient than mains gas. EPC rating D is middling; cavity walls are as-built with no insulation (assumed), presenting an opportunity for future improvement.
Costs are predictable: service charge approximately £117.60 pcm (£1,411.20 pa) and ground rent £200 pa; council tax Band B is relatively cheap. The location is a clear strength—short walks to Walthamstow Central, local markets, green spaces and a wide range of shops and eateries—ideal for first-time buyers wanting transport links and neighbourhood amenities.
Note the wider area has above-average crime and higher deprivation indices; buyers should weigh local social factors. The apartment is tidy and ready to move into but offers straightforward scope for energy upgrades or cosmetic refurbishment to add value.
