First-floor, chain-free retirement flat close to Wanstead High Street and transport links..
Chain-free first-floor retirement apartment, age 60+ required
A chain-free, first-floor retirement apartment in Westleigh Court offering a practical base for the over-60s. The flat includes a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, a separate living room, kitchen and bathroom, and benefits from communal facilities including a lounge, laundry, guest room, landscaped gardens and a lift for easy access.
The property is offered with an 89-year lease remaining and is sold as needing renovation — presenting scope to personalise and add value. Heating is by electric storage radiators and glazing is double; buyers should note cavity walls likely lack added insulation and the building dates from the 1980s.
Convenience is a key draw: Wanstead High Street, buses and Snaresbrook and Wanstead Central Line stations are within easy reach, with on-site and permit parking available. Council tax is described as affordable and broadband and mobile signal are strong in the area.
Practical considerations: the flat is leasehold (89 years remaining), requires renovation, and uses electric storage heating which can be costly. The immediate neighbourhood records above-average crime levels — prospective buyers should satisfy themselves on local safety and service charge/ground rent details before committing.
