Set within an iconic Grade II listed railstore conversion, this two-bedroom duplex offers 972 sq ft of striking industrial-style living. The upper and lower levels deliver a dramatic open-plan reception with high vaulted ceilings, exposed brickwork and a contemporary fitted kitchen with a central island — a strong match for buyers seeking character with modern convenience.
The apartment includes two double bedrooms, the principal with an en-suite, plus a second bathroom. Communal areas are well maintained and the flat comes with allocated off-street parking. Commuters benefit from a short walk to Gidea Park mainline station and Crossrail services, making central London access straightforward.
Practical costs and constraints are set out clearly: the property is leasehold with 103 years remaining, an annual service charge of £2,937.84 and ground rent of £400 per year. Listed status preserves the building’s character but can restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or extensions. Buyers should factor in these running costs and potential planning constraints.
This apartment will suit buyers who value period character and generous internal space rather than a turnkey new-build. It presents a ready-to-live-in home with scope for personalised updating, but those needing unrestricted structural changes should seek specialist advice on listed-building permissions beforehand.
