Two-bed riverside flat with parking and excellent transport links — suitable for first-time buyers..
Riverside balcony with pleasant water views
A bright two-bedroom riverside apartment offering practical living across circa 700 sq ft, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking transport links and local amenities. The open-plan living and dining area opens to a balcony with river views; the master bedroom includes an en-suite for everyday convenience. The flat is double-glazed and heated by a mains gas boiler with radiators, and comes with a gated parking space — helpful in a busy urban location.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with 106 years remaining, a ground rent of £200 per year and a higher-than-average service charge of £4,200 per year. The building dates from the early 20th century and has solid brick walls without added insulation (as built); older glazing was fitted before 2002, so further thermal improvements are possible and may reduce running costs.
Well connected by rail, DLR, Elizabeth line and bus routes, the flat sits close to Woolwich shops, supermarkets and several well-rated primary and secondary schools. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and the property faces no flood risk and sits in a low-crime area. Overall, this is a practical, move-in-ready starter home with scope to add value through targeted modernization.
