Shared ownership (Advertised price represents 35% share. Full market value £335,000). This generously-sized, one-bedroom flat is on the ground floor of a recently-constructed development and appears in excellent condition throughout. The property has a twenty-foot, dual-aspect reception room with open-plan kitchen area featuring sleek, handle-less units and integrated appliances. A glazed door leads from the living area out to a south/south-east-facing terrace. There is a spacious bedroom, a stylish bathroom and a pair of storage/utility cupboards in the entrance hallway. Well insulated walls and floor, high performance glazing and a communal heating/hot water system all contribute towards a very good energy-efficiency rating. The flat comes with use of a parking space and Merriam Close is also just a short walk from Highams Park Station, for London Overground services between Chingford and Liverpool Street.

What is shared ownership ?
Shared Ownership is a housing scheme designed to help homebuyers who are unable to afford the cost of buying a property outright on the open market. Properties may be sold off-plan or new build direct from housing associations, or pre-owned from existing shared owners. The rules and terms of the scheme are set by the Greater London Authority (gla) in London and Homes England outside of London.

1. Not own another property in the UK or any other country.
2. Have a household income that falls below £90,000 (£80,000 threshold outside the M25). Every property will have a minimum income level too, determined by its’ value, rent and service charge costs. In most cases you will need to meet or exceed the given minimum income.
3. Have access to a minimum deposit of 10% of the share being purchased (a minimum deposit of 5% of the share being purchased may be acceptable depending on individual financial status).
4. Be in full time permanent employment.
