London flat in auction recalls one of Albion’s favourite sons 

The vacant apartment has a guide price* of £130,000+ and includes hallway, bathroom, bedroom, kitchen and living room and balcony, with allocated parking, and has electric heating and double glazing. 

Craig Upton, marketing director of Bond Wolfe, said: “The statue of Laurie Cunningham is close to Leyton Orient’s Brisbane Road stadium where he started his playing career at 18, staying for three years before joining West Bromwich Albion. 

“Under legendary manager Ron Atkinson, he teamed up with Cyrille Regis and Brendan Batson, nicknamed the Three Degrees, before he became the first Englishman to play for Real Madrid when they signed him from WBA for £950,000.

“We can only speculate what he would be worth today!”

Located within the London borough of Waltham Forest, it is a vibrant area which is readily accessible to central London via Leyton tube station.

This London residential opportunity is among 176 lots appearing in Bond Wolfe’s next auction, which starts at 8.30am on Thursday 22 October.

The auction will be livestreamed via Bond Wolfe’s website with remote bidding by proxy, telephone or internet.
