Set on the top floor of a well-maintained 1960s purpose-built block in Hampton Village, this compact one-bedroom apartment is light-filled and surprisingly practical. The lounge opens onto a private terrace ideal for morning coffee, and a modern fitted kitchen and shower room keep day-to-day living straightforward. The long lease (956 years) and allocated covered parking add tangible ownership security.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer seeking a manageable, low-upkeep home or an investor targeting reliable rental demand near Hampton station and local amenities. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and close proximity to rail links (to London Waterloo), shops and riverside walks support comfortable living and lettability.
Be clear about the main limitations: the flat is small at about 400 sq ft, heated by electric room heaters, and currently rated EPC E (54) with a potential C (77). The building’s cavity walls are assumed uninsulated and double glazing predates 2002, so updating heating and insulation would improve comfort and running costs. Crime levels in the area are above average — this is a practical urban home rather than a secluded retreat.
Overall, this is a well-located, low-maintenance one-bed with terrace and parking that offers immediate convenience and clear scope for energy improvements. It’s best for buyers prioritising location, transport links and a compact, easy-to-manage home, or investors seeking a centrally positioned rental asset.
