Bright, contemporary one-bedroom apartment on an upper floor, finished in a modern open-plan style and extending to around 562 sq ft. The living space flows onto a private balcony, bringing natural light and city views to the main reception. The fitted kitchen and bathroom are contemporary and ready to use.
Set close to Canada Water and Surrey Quays transport links, the home suits first-time buyers seeking convenient commuting and local amenities. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working; nearby shops, gyms, parks and leisure facilities are within easy walking distance.
Practical costs and tenure are straightforward: a 110-year lease remains and the property sits on mains gas with a community heating scheme. Buyers should note a significant annual service charge and separate ground rent. The immediate area records higher-than-average crime and shows signs of local deprivation, which may affect long-term resale and rental demand.
