Bright top-floor one-bedroom apartment in West Greenwich, offering compact, contemporary living close to Greenwich’s historic centre. The open-plan reception/kitchen maximises a modest 412 sq ft, creating a light, flexible space for everyday living and simple entertaining.
Practical features include off-street residents’ parking, a long lease of 246 years and no ground rent, making this an easy-entry purchase for a first-time buyer. Annual service charge is £1,212 and council tax band B keeps running costs relatively low.
Be clear on the trade-offs: the apartment is small and best suited to solo buyers or couples, local crime levels are higher than average for the area, and broadband speeds are reported as very slow.
