A newly refurbished one-bedroom ground-floor apartment offering ready-to-move-in accommodation close to Victoria Park and local rail links to London. The layout maximises space with a good-sized master bedroom, a small dedicated home office and an open-plan lounge/diner that flows to a modern fitted kitchen. Practical touches include double glazing, gas central heating and generous communal parking.
This apartment is offered chain-free on a 100-year lease, making it appealing to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors looking for immediate occupancy or rental potential. Service charges and ground rent are modestly stated, and council tax is low (Band A), which helps running costs. Communal gardens provide outdoor space without the maintenance of a private garden.
Buyers should note the property sits in an area described as economically deprived; this can affect local amenities and long-term resale values. The flat is leasehold with an annual service charge of £1,306 and a ground rent of £10, so factor these into monthly costs. Overall, it’s a compact, economical home or rental that requires no immediate work thanks to the extensive refurbishment.
