At around 440 sq ft, the layout makes efficient use of space with pale hardwood floors in the main living area and skylit circulation improving natural light.

Broadband speeds in the area are reported slow, though mobile signal is excellent. The building is a small low-rise development of only eight flats, which some buyers will appreciate for its neighbourly feel.
Overall, the apartment offers a ready-to-live-in, modern city base with immediate access to green space and solid commuter links. Buyers seeking a low-maintenance city-flat near Epping Forest will find genuine appeal here, while those prioritising very fast broadband or zero ongoing service costs should factor these limitations into their decision.
