Summary - HILL HOUSE FLAT 47 DEFENCE CLOSE LONDON SE28 0NQ
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Spacious third-floor home with parking and strong transport links.
Direct river views and private balcony
Light-filled and spacious, this 915 sq ft third-floor flat offers direct river views and a private balcony for relaxed summers by the water. The generous reception room and two double bedrooms (one with en-suite) make it comfortable for first-time buyers wanting more space than a typical starter home. Built in the mid-2000s, the building benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating.
Practical features include an allocated off-street parking space, two bathrooms, and a 105-year lease — attractive for mortgage lenders and long-term ownership. The location combines quiet riverside living with strong transport links: Woolwich’s Elizabeth Line, DLR and National Rail services are a short commute away, plus regular bus routes and road access for wider travel.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with an annual service charge of about £2,700 and ground rent of £200. The apartment is largely modern but some cosmetic updating would personalise the space and could add value. Broadband speeds are average; mobile signal and local safety are good.
Nearby schools rated ‘Good’ and local amenities — parks, leisure facilities and cycle routes — suit young families and professionals. With no flood risk and reasonable running costs, this flat offers roomy, well-located riverside living for a buyer seeking a comfortable long-term home or a lettable investment with potential to refresh the interiors.
