Bright, newly renovated one-bed near Blackhorse Road station and Walthamstow Wetlands.
South-facing private balcony overlooking communal gardens
This bright one-bedroom apartment in Cordage House offers 576 sq ft of modern living in Walthamstow’s Blackhorse Road area. Set on the second floor of a 2019 development, the flat has an open-plan kitchen/reception, a south-facing balcony and a generous double bedroom with built-in storage. The new-build construction and recent renovation mean low immediate maintenance and efficient heating from mains gas.
The location is a major selling point: approximately a ten-minute walk to Blackhorse Road station (Victoria Line) and within easy reach of Walthamstow Wetlands and local cafes, breweries and community spaces. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit remote working and streaming, while secure cycle storage and communal gardens add practical benefits for city living.
Practical considerations are straightforward and should be noted. The property is leasehold with 248 years remaining and forms part of a denser, evolving neighbourhood classified as a multicultural area with young ethnic communities. Local indicators show higher area deprivation and average crime levels compared with some neighbouring districts, so buyers should check personal safety and amenity needs on visits. There is no flood risk and council tax is low.
Ideal for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a modern, low-maintenance one-bedroom close to transport links, this apartment balances city convenience with nearby green space. It will particularly suit purchasers who value light, outdoor access from the balcony and a ready-to-move-in finish, while being prepared for the realities of an urban neighbourhood undergoing change.
