Modern, chain-free flat with parking and quick City links.
Riverside balcony with water views over the River Roding
Bright one-bedroom apartment set on the River Roding, offered chain-free with a 106-year lease. The property sits within a gated, contemporary development built 2003–2006 and benefits from a balcony overlooking the water, allocated off-street parking and modern fittings throughout.
The kitchen and bathroom are modern, double glazing is installed and heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make the flat practical for remote work or streaming, while Barking station is a short walk away with direct services to the City in around 15 minutes.
Running costs are notable: an average service charge of £2,556 and ground rent of £250 per year apply. The local area has a very high crime rate and is classified as very deprived, which buyers should weigh against the transport links and waterside setting.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer seeking a compact, move-in-ready home with good commuting options, or an investor wanting a modern riverside asset. The flat’s size (approx. 474 sq ft) and maintenance profile make it straightforward to manage, though neighbourhood safety and service costs are material factors to consider.
