The apartment is in excellent condition with simple, stylish decor and good natural light, with windows on two sides and window panels above the internal doors.

Entering via the communal entrance on the ground floor, a stair takes you up to your own front door. This opens into a hallway which widens into a large, square space at the centre of the apartment. The generous size of the hall gives the apartment an open and airy ambience, and it has great flow thanks to two doors to the living room.

White walls complement the fabulous parquet wood floor that runs from the hallway into the living room, and wide picture windows frame leafy views.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER...

"Highams Park is safe, friendly, and has a real community feel. I've loved having access to the wonderful green spaces here and the fast transport connections into London via the Overground. The centre of Highams Park has an eclectic mix of cafes, restaurants and independent shops. Oakdale Court is surrounded by the beautiful Larks Wood and is so peaceful and secluded."
