This bright sixth-floor one-bedroom flat offers a compact, modern living space in The Vista Building, a purpose-built development close to central Woolwich amenities and transport links. The open-plan reception and kitchen flow onto a private balcony, giving city views and natural light throughout the day. Lift access and a concierge add convenience for daily life or let-management.
Practical details: the property is leasehold with 128 years remaining, an average service charge of about £3,500 pa and a small ground rent of £50 pa. There is no allocated parking — on-street parking only — and heating is by electric room heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives.
Buyers should note the local context: the area is classified as inner-city and more deprived, with a very high crime rate locally. The building dates from the late 1970s–early 1980s and is a system-built construction with partial insulation assumed; double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown. These factors indicate future maintenance and energy-cost considerations.
For a first-time buyer or investor seeking a well-located, low-bed-count flat with straightforward layout and strong nearby amenities, this is a practical entry point into SE18. The property suits someone prioritising location, easy access to shops, schools and the Thames, and who is comfortable managing higher service charges, electric heating costs and the lack of private parking.
