This spacious two-bedroom apartment offers generous room sizes across nearly 973 sq ft and suits a first-time buyer seeking roomy, modern accommodation with low running costs. The open-plan living area is south-facing, fills with natural light and opens onto a private balcony overlooking communal gardens. The master bedroom includes an en-suite and fitted storage; a family bathroom completes the layout.
The home is offered as shared ownership on a 103-year lease (new build, lease commenced 2004). Practical extras include allocated off-street parking, gas central heating (not tested) and integrated kitchen appliances. Service charge (£197.71pcm) and ground rent (£150pa) are modest for a new-build apartment, and broadband and mobile signals are strong.
Buyers should note material points before viewing: this is a leasehold shared ownership property, so eligibility and staircasing options will apply. Gas heating has not been tested and should be inspected by a buyer’s surveyor. Local crime levels are recorded as very high, which may concern some purchasers and could affect insurance and resale considerations. Lenders’ requirements for building safety paperwork can vary.
Located within walking distance of local shops, good primary schools and an overground station with links into central London, the flat is well placed for commuting and everyday needs. For buyers wanting large rooms, a bright south-facing living space and a manageable shared-ownership route onto the housing ladder, this apartment presents clear practical value, provided you factor in tenure, safety paperwork and local area issues.
