About This Property

This flat is located in LONDON, E17 5EW. The property offers 61m² (657 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property holds an EPC rating of C (69/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The solid walls lack insulation.
