This newly renovated first-floor one-bedroom flat offers a practical, move-in-ready home in a well-connected Stratford neighbourhood. The reception is bright and spacious, the double bedroom is generous, and the modern kitchen and bathroom are fresh and contemporary. At 501 sq ft the layout suits a single occupant or couple, and the property has been well maintained by the current owner.
Transport is a standout: Maryland Crossrail station is about a two-minute walk, giving fast links into central London. Westfield Stratford City, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and an extensive selection of local shops, cafés and services are all within easy reach, supporting both convenient daily life and strong rental appeal.
The flat is leasehold with a long remaining term (154 years), a modest ground rent (£200) and an annual service charge of approximately £2,147 — factors to budget for when assessing monthly costs. Broadband speeds are average while mobile signal is excellent. Note the local area scores higher for crime and is classified as economically deprived; buyers should factor this into personal safety and security considerations.
Overall this is a sensible purchase for a first-time buyer seeking a well-presented, low-maintenance home with excellent transport links — and for investors looking for consistent tenant demand close to central Stratford. The property’s condition means minimal immediate refurbishment is required, though buyers should review communal costs and local safety considerations before committing.
