A ground-floor two-bedroom flat with its own entrance and private rear garden, this property offers rare outdoor space for a flat and straightforward, low-maintenance living. The layout is traditional and compact — about 517 sq ft — with a comfortable reception room and a modern-feeling kitchen suitable for everyday cooking. The long lease (900+ years) removes a common leasehold worry and supports both owner-occupiers and buy-to-let purchasers.
Positioned within easy walking distance of Waltham Cross rail station, the flat is well placed for commuting into London. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the home practical for hybrid working. Local schools nearby are rated Good, and council tax is described as affordable, which will appeal to cost-conscious buyers.
Honest drawbacks: the property is small overall, with a compact kitchen and electric room heaters rather than a central gas system, so heating costs and comfort should be considered. The local area is classified as a constrained, very deprived neighbourhood — while crime is low, buyers should judge the location against their priorities. Double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown, so buyers may want to check glazing and insulation if energy efficiency is important.
This flat best suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a leasehold property with outdoor space and strong transport links. If you value a private garden and proximity to rail connections over generous interior space, this is a practical, low-hassle option with clear potential to personalise the interior.
