This modern two-bedroom riverside apartment offers 809 sq ft of comfortable living with direct river views from a large balcony. The open-plan reception with wooden floors and a fitted kitchen creates an easy living space for first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance city base. Both bedrooms are doubles and the principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room.
Riverside West brings on-site conveniences that add real day-to-day value: 24-hour concierge, discounted parking, and residents’ access to a Virgin Active gym, pool and sauna (membership available). Wandsworth Town station is a short walk for quick links to Waterloo, and nearby piers serve the Uber Boat river service. Local shops, restaurants on Old York Road and the Southside Shopping Centre are within easy reach.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold (long lease remaining: 971 years) with a service charge of around £4,500 pa and ground rent of £350 pa. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, and council tax is described as expensive — both factors to consider for running costs. Flood risk is very low and broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Overall this is a practical, well-located riverside flat that suits buyers wanting a ready-to-live-in home with communal facilities and strong transport links, provided they budget for the higher-than-average service charge and electricity heating costs.
