Summary - 71 Nightingale Lane E11 2EY
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact two-bedroom home with a private patio and fast links to central London.
Prime Wanstead location with excellent transport links
A compact two-bedroom ground-floor flat in the heart of Wanstead, suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking convenience and low upkeep. The open-plan living and dining area and modern kitchen maximise the apartment’s 549 sq ft, while a small, low-maintenance patio garden provides private outdoor space.
The property is offered with the full freehold covering both the downstairs and upstairs flats; the upstairs leaseholder pays an annual ground rent of £50 and building insurance is split 50/50. The building is a Victorian mid-terrace with solid brick walls (no known insulation) and double glazing of unknown age — buyers should consider potential improvement costs for thermal efficiency and sound insulation.
Practical positives include excellent transport links, fast broadband and nearby good primary and secondary schools. Notable cautions are the compact overall size, an above-average local crime statistic, and shared freehold responsibilities which may require agreement with the upstairs leaseholder on maintenance and insurance arrangements.
This apartment presents immediate move-in convenience with scope for modest updating to personalise finishes or improve energy performance. For a buyer wanting a well-located, low-maintenance home or an investor targeting steady rental demand, this is a straightforward proposition but one to purchase with an awareness of the freehold arrangements and upgrade potential.
