On the balance of probabilities where you own a flat in Manor Park you actually own a long leasehold interest over your property
It is conventional wisdom that a property with more than 100 years unexpired lease term is worth approximately the equivalent as a freehold. Where an further 90 years added to any lease with more than 35 years left, the residence will be equivalent in value to a freehold for decades to come.

Freddie was the the leasehold proprietor of a high value apartment in Manor Park being sold with a lease of a little over 59 years remaining. Freddie on an informal basis contacted his freeholder being a well known London-based freehold company for a lease extension. The freeholder indicated a willingness to extend the lease to 125 years subject to a new rent initially set at £150 per annum and doubled every 25 years thereafter. Ordinarily, ground rent would not be payable on a lease extension were Freddie to exercise his statutory right. Freddie obtained expert legal guidance and secured an acceptable resolution without resorting to tribunal and ending up with a market value flat.
Mr and Mrs. H Clarke acquired a ground floor apartment in Manor Park in May 2003. The question was if we could shed any light on how much (approximately) compensation to the landlord would be for a ninety year extension to my lease. Comparable residencies in Manor Park with a long lease were valued around £227,800. The mid-range ground rent payable was £45 invoiced annually. The lease concluded in 2091. Taking into account 65 years outstanding we calculated the premium to the landlord to extend the lease to be within £13,300 and £15,400 plus fees.
