Well-connected two-bed home near Lewisham station, ideal for commuters.
Seventh-floor apartment with balcony and elevated city views
This seventh-floor two-bedroom apartment offers bright, contemporary living in a well-connected Lewisham development. At around 668 sq ft the layout provides a separate living area, fitted kitchen and a small balcony with elevated city views — a practical size for first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance home or a commuter buy-to-let.
Built between 2007–2011, the block benefits from double glazing and a community heating scheme. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and streaming. The remaining lease of 111 years is healthy for a leasehold purchase, and local transport links (Lewisham rail and DLR) plus plentiful local amenities make daily life easy.
On the cost side, annual service charges (approx. £3,066) and ground rent (£470pa) are material running costs to budget for. The property is in a high flood-risk area and the neighbourhood records above-average crime levels; these are important for insurance, personal safety planning, and suitability depending on buyer priorities.
Overall, this apartment suits buyers who prioritise transport, connectivity and contemporary living over a large private garden. It works as a sensible first home or a commuter investment, provided you factor in service charges, insurance considerations and local safety/flood risk mitigation.
