Top-floor one-bedroom with excellent natural light
Bright, modern and nearly new, this top-floor one-bedroom apartment was completed in 2022 and lived in for only six months by its first owner. The open-plan reception and integrated kitchen get excellent natural light, and the rare private garden adds outdoor space that is unusual for a one-bed flat. Long-term security is strong: a 998-year lease and an upcoming share of freehold. EPC B, mains gas heating and low service charges (£605/year) keep running costs reasonable.
The apartment suits a professional, couple or first-time buyer seeking low-maintenance living with quick rail links into central London. Motspur Park station is a five-minute walk with trains to Waterloo in about 25 minutes, plus a direct bus to South Wimbledon (Northern Line). Local amenities include Tesco Extra and a mix of shops, leisure and schools nearby.
Be upfront about limitations: the overall size is average (approximately 460 sq ft) with two main rooms, so storage and living space are compact. The property is in a major conurbation with a recorded high local crime level — buyers should consider security and insurance implications. Although newly built and move-in ready, communal and exterior maintenance responsibilities may apply once the share of freehold transfer completes.
This chain-free apartment offers sensible running costs, long lease length and practical transport links — a straightforward, low-upkeep home or a solid buy-to-let opportunity for an investor comfortable with the local area profile.
