A bright one-bedroom ground-floor flat with private riverside patio, offered chain free and ready to occupy. The reception opens directly onto the patio via sliding doors, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow and peaceful river views over the Lea. The kitchen is well-fitted with hardwood surfaces and a butler-style sink; bedrooms include built-in storage. Underfloor heating and allocated off-street parking add everyday convenience.
Practical buyers will appreciate the exceptionally long lease (954 years) and the property’s compact 452 sq ft layout — straightforward to maintain and suitable as a first home or buy-to-let. Communal gardens, nearby green spaces (North Millfields, Springfield Park, Walthamstow Marshes) and good local transport (Clapton Overground ~0.5 miles) enhance lifestyle and rental appeal.
Be candid about costs: the service charge is around £1,920 per year, and the building sits in an area with pockets of deprivation and average local crime levels. The flat is in good decorative order but is an average-sized one-bedroom — buyers seeking larger accommodation should note the modest living space. Overall this is a practical, low-risk riverside flat with strong location perks for singles or investors.
