Peaceful Location - Just 50 Metres from Epping High Street Enjoy the best of both worlds.
The apartment is situated in quiet and attractive Buttercross Lane, yet is only approximately 50 metres from Epping High Street, with its excellent choice of bars, restaurants, cafes, pubs, independent shops and boutiques.
Buttercross Lane is a peaceful and well-established residential setting, surrounded by attractive properties, while remaining exceptionally convenient for the centre of Epping.
The combination of a peaceful residential location, close proximity to the High Street, fully furnished accommodation, secure covered parking and pleasant countryside outlook makes this a particularly convenient and appealing place to live.
2. Gas Central Heating The apartment benefits from gas central heating, providing controllable heating throughout the property.
Unlike traditional electric storage heaters, which generally require heat to be stored in advance, gas central heating allows the property to be heated when required and brought up to a comfortable temperature relatively quickly.
This was an important consideration when the apartment was purchased and provides tenants with the ability to control the heating according to their needs and lifestyle. 3.
Epping Underground Station - Approximately 800 Metres Away Epping Underground Station is approximately 800 metres away, providing access to the Central Line and direct services towards London.
The station is conveniently accessible on foot while the apartment remains tucked away from the busier High Street environment.
