Bright, well-proportioned and practical, this second-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a comfortable home for commuters and young families. The reception room extends to a private balcony where treetop views and open air create a calm spot for morning coffee. Large windows and Karndean-style flooring give the main living space a light, contemporary feel.
The kitchen is fitted with pale cabinetry, marble-effect worktops and integrated appliances, while the bathroom is neutrally tiled and benefits from a window for natural light and ventilation. The larger main bedroom provides flexible space for a double bed and storage; the second bedroom suits as a child's room, guest bedroom or a work-from-home study.
Practical extras lift the everyday convenience: a secure private garage for parking or storage and a Bosch washer and dryer tucked into a utility cupboard. Highams Park station is a short walk away, and Epping Forest and Highams Park’s shops, cafés and pubs are within easy reach — a good balance of green space and local amenities.
A few straightforward caveats: the block was constructed in the late 1960s–1970s and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so energy-efficiency improvements may be worthwhile. There is one family bathroom only, and the area records average local crime and services (mobile signal and council tax). Overall, this share-of-freehold flat offers immediate livability with clear potential to personalise and upgrade where desired.
