Bright, newly renovated one-bedroom apartment ideal for a first-time buyer or commuter. The open-plan living room and fitted kitchen receive plenty of natural light, while a spacious double bedroom offers comfortable sleeping space. Fresh carpets and vinyl flooring mean the property is ready to move into.
Practical extras include lift access, a communal roof terrace and a secure underground parking space — a rare convenience so close to Barking Station and the town centre. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working or streaming.
Several running costs and local factors should be noted: the lease has 101 years remaining, the annual service charge is £3,249 and ground rent is £250. The local area records very high crime levels and is classified as deprived, which may affect long-term capital appreciation for some buyers.
On the positive side the property has gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C. At 484 sq ft and priced at £200,000 this apartment suits buyers seeking a low-maintenance, well-connected base with immediate move-in potential, who are comfortable with the service charge and local area profile.
