River Gardens is a compact riverside development offering contemporary two-bedroom apartments with genuine waterside appeal. The open-plan kitchen/living layout and private balcony focus on relaxed, low‑maintenance living, while brand‑new fixtures and integrated appliances reduce immediate upkeep. Two allocated parking spaces and communal gardens add practical convenience for everyday life.
This apartment suits first‑time buyers or buy‑to‑let investors seeking a modern coastal base. The property is sold as a share of freehold with 125 years remaining on the lease, and modest maintenance fees (approx. £1,380/year) cover communal upkeep. The riverside setting and proximity to beaches, shops and transport links are strong lifestyle draws.
Buyers should note material considerations honestly: the location records very high crime levels and the site carries a medium flood risk — both factors that can affect insurance costs and resale. Broadband speeds are reported slow, which could be a drawback for regular home‑working. The surrounding area is economically deprived and classified as a transitional, constrained renters neighbourhood, which will influence rental demand and capital-growth prospects.
Viewed alongside its strengths — new build specification, allocated parking, river views and low-maintenance finishes — this is a pragmatic purchase for someone prioritising lifestyle and affordability. Investors should factor in the local let‑attractiveness and running costs; first‑time buyers will find an easy‑to-manage home close to local amenities and the coast.
