Summary - Sharleston Court, Abbey Road, Barking, London, IG11 IG11 7RU
2 bed 2 bath Flat
High-spec finishes, balcony and fast rail links to central London.
Private balcony with riverside views
Bright, well-presented two-bedroom apartment on the riverfront, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a modern home with good transport links. The open-plan living space has full-height windows and a private balcony that capture pleasing riverside views and natural light. The fitted, integrated kitchen and contemporary bathrooms are ready to use, reducing immediate renovation needs.
Practical living is supported by two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, fast broadband availability and an average 756 sqft layout that suits a couple or sharer. Barking station is about a 12-minute walk with Overground and c2c connections; Canary Wharf is commutable in around 21 minutes, making this convenient for city commuters.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property is leasehold, and the wider area records very high crime levels and high deprivation. Those factors may affect resale values and day-to-day perceptions; viewings will show whether the location and riverside aspects outweigh these downsides for you. Flood risk is low.
Overall this apartment offers modern finishes, riverside outlook and useful transport links at an accessible price point, but it suits buyers who accept leasehold ownership and the realities of a challenged local neighbourhood.
