1 bed flat for sale

Higham Street, Walthamstow, London E17

Unlike most one-bedroom flats you may have seen, this fantastic ground floor apartment truly stands out thanks to its huge south-facing private garden, side access and an exceptionally long lease that almost gives the feel of a freehold. Set across approximately 486 sq. Ft, the home is well laid out and filled with natural light. The generous reception room offers ample space for both relaxing and dining, with stylish wooden flooring adding a crisp, modern feel. Double doors open directly onto the garden, making this a wonderful space for entertaining or simply enjoying indoor-outdoor living. A central hallway provides access to all rooms, including a fully fitted kitchen, a modern bathroom, and a spacious double bedroom positioned quietly towards the rear of the property. Externally, the property really comes into its own. The impressive 40ft south-facing garden is for sole use and benefits from side access, ideal for bikes, gardening equipment or easy access after a long day. The corner plot makes this an excellent option for those considering a detached home office or studio, and there is also off-street parking to the side. The flat is offered with no onward chain and boasts an incredible 964-year lease. The service charge is approximately £65 per month, covering insurance and maintenance, exceptionally low when compared to similar properties in the area. Combined with the building’s energy efficiency, low running costs, and the absence of parking permits or separate insurance costs, this represents outstanding value. Some owners even choose to rent out their parking space, achieving up to £80 per month.

Higham Street is a highly sought after development situated around half a mile from Blackhorse Road station on the Victoria Line, putting you at King’s Cross in under thirty minutes, door to door. Head the other way and within a few minutes’ stroll you’ll find yourself in the Walthamstow Wetlands, London’s largest and newest nature reserve, a true escape of peace and calm. For something closer to home, Higham Hill Park is only eight minutes on foot, while Lloyd Park is less than a mile away. Practically on your doorstep, the Blackhorse Beer Mile invites you to explore a string of independent craft breweries and small venues. And if beer isn’t your style, you’ll even find a local winery tucked in among them.
