This bright one-bedroom flat in East Sheen makes efficient use of 520 sq ft with a well-proportioned reception room and a compact contemporary kitchen. Large west-facing double-glazed windows give good afternoon light and help the apartment feel more spacious than the floorplan suggests. The property is offered chain free and vacant, which simplifies a quick move or letting.
Location is a strong selling point: Mortlake station is within easy reach for fast services into central London, and East Sheen and Barnes Village amenities — cafés, shops and supermarkets — are all walkable. The area is affluent and well served for schools and local facilities, making this suitable for a first-time buyer seeking convenience or an investor targeting reliable rental demand.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the flat is leasehold with 93 years remaining and a small annual ground rent of £150. The building dates from the 1930s with solid-brick walls that likely lack cavity insulation, so the apartment may benefit from energy-efficiency upgrades. Crime levels in the immediate area are reported high, which may affect some buyers’ priorities.
Overall this is a practical, centrally located flat with immediate move-in potential and scope to add value through modest improvements to heating and insulation. Its size and position suit purchasers wanting easy transport links and local amenities, but budget and lease considerations should be factored into any offer.
