This two-bedroom duplex apartment offers strong rental appeal thanks to river and O2 views, generous 722 sq ft layout and proximity to Crossharbour DLR and Canary Wharf. The split-level plan and large windows deliver bright, airy spaces that suit professionals or sharers seeking easy transport links and riverside amenities like Folly House Beach and Mudchute Park.
Practical running costs and tenure details matter: the flat is leasehold with 88 years remaining, an annual service charge around £3,194 and a ground rent of £10. Heating is provided by a community mains gas scheme; walls are system-built and likely uninsulated, which could affect long-term energy performance and may require retrofit work.
For investors the location and size support good lettings demand, while the apartment’s mid-century features and open-plan areas make for straightforward modernisation to lift rental income. Note broadband speeds are reported slow and the area scores as very deprived, factors to weigh when forecasting yields and tenant profiles.
Overall this is a practical buy-to-let with clear upside from cosmetic improvement and potential insulation/energy upgrades. Buyers seeking a long-term home should factor in lease length and the service charge when assessing affordability.
