- Size circa 595 sq ft — compact layout for two occupants

A bright, chain-free two-bedroom ground-floor flat with its own fully decked private garden and an exceptionally long 900‑year lease. The large reception room and modern kitchen open onto a south‑west facing timber deck, creating a generous indoor-outdoor feel rare at this price in Wanstead.
Perfect for first‑time buyers seeking easy access to green space and strong transport links: Snaresbrook Central line is an eight‑minute walk and Wanstead High Street's cafes, pubs and shops are moments away. The property sits close to highly rated primary and secondary schools and offers fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for working from home.
Be clear about the trade-offs: overall size is small (circa 595 sq ft) and the building’s Victorian solid-brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, which may mean higher heating costs and scope for energy improvements. The area records above‑average crime levels, and the EPC is a D. Some parts of the conversion show original features and may benefit from further updating to maximise value.
If you prioritise long lease security, outdoor private space and immediate access to Wanstead’s amenities, this compact two‑bed offers a practical, low‑maintenance base with clear scope for energy upgrades and aesthetic improvements.
