Bright, low-maintenance one-bedroom retirement flat set on the second floor with lift access and a corner position that maximises natural light. The living space flows into a well-equipped kitchen; the bedroom benefits from a large built-in wardrobe. Communal facilities — lounge, laundry and well-kept gardens — add convenience and social space for over-55s.
Practical details suit those downsizing: double glazing, electric room heaters and neutral carpets throughout. The block sits back from Cambridge Road with established planting for extra privacy, and Wanstead Underground, shops and green spaces are all within easy reach.
Important to note: the flat is leasehold with about 74 years remaining, which may limit mortgage availability and affect resale value; buyers should get lender confirmation before committing. Service charge details are not provided and should be clarified. Broadband speeds in the area are reported very slow, and heating is electric room heaters rather than a communal or gas system.
Offered chain free, this 504 sq ft property is best for a buyer seeking a manageable, sociable retirement base close to transport and amenities, who is comfortable with a leasehold purchase and the current heating and connectivity arrangements.
