Compact retirement-friendly flat with parking and strong transport links.
Ninth-floor apartment in gated development with communal gardens
A compact two-bedroom ninth-floor apartment in the gated Tamar Square development, offered with a Home for Life Lifetime Lease option for over-60s. The flat sits within easy reach of Woodford Central Line station and local shops, and comes with an allocated underground parking space and communal gardens. Share of freehold and chain-free sale simplify long-term ownership.
At 548 sq ft this home suits downsizers seeking low-external-maintenance living close to transport and neighbourhood amenities. The kitchen is modern and the sitting/dining room is the largest room, while double glazing and electric underfloor heating provide immediate comfort. The property’s construction era (1967–75) and system-built walls suggest limited built-in insulation despite glazed upgrades.
For buyers aged 60+, the Home for Life Lifetime Lease can reduce the up-front cost compared with full market value; a guide Lifetime Lease price here is £192,000 (market value £290,000), but the actual price depends on age and personal circumstances and can include buying up to 50% of the property. Important practical points: the flat is compact, has a single shower room, and the building’s system-built walls may mean future retrofit/insulation work for energy efficiency. Electric-only heating can be more costly than gas alternatives.
