Minutes from Abbey Wood and the Elizabeth Line for fast commutes.
527 sqft open-plan one-bedroom apartment
A bright first-floor one-bedroom apartment in the Southmere development, offering 527 sqft of open-plan living designed for modern urban life. The L-shaped fitted kitchen opens to a generous reception area and a private balcony overlooking landscaped communal play space. The large bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and there is useful hallway storage with plumbing for a washing machine.
This home suits a first-time buyer or commuter: it is just 0.4 miles from Abbey Wood station and the Elizabeth Line, putting Canary Wharf and central London within easy reach. Built in 2019, the block provides lift access, concierge service, a secured entry system and an energy rating of B. The property is on a long lease (997 years) with no ground rent and a service charge of about £196 pcm.
Be clear about local context: the area is classified as deprived with higher local crime levels, so buyers should consider security and insurance implications despite the on-site concierge and secure entry. The property is heated via a community scheme — check service arrangements and any future costs. Council Tax Band B is relatively low and there is no flood risk.
This apartment offers low-maintenance modern living with direct transport links and extensive local amenities — parks, lakes and on-site leisure facilities — making it a practical step onto the ladder. Practical buyers should budget for ongoing service charge commitments and consider local safety factors when viewing.
