This recently refurbished one-bedroom flat on Kingfisher Street offers a compact, move-in-ready layout ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. At around 400 sq ft the accommodation is efficient: an open-plan reception/kitchen with integrated appliances, a modern shower room and a double bedroom provide comfortable city living without further works.
Practical benefits include a very long lease (959 years), off-street parking and easy road access to Canary Wharf and London City Airport. Beckton Station is approximately 0.6 miles away, and local buses serve nearby routes, making commuting straightforward. Service charge is approximately £1,700 per year and there is no ground rent.
Buyers should note the flat is compact and has electric room heating rather than gas central heating, so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. The immediate area records above-average crime and is classed as very deprived, which may concern some buyers. There is no private garden and the property sits in a built-up, urban setting.
Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance purchase for someone seeking a ready-made first home or a rental asset close to Canary Wharf. The long lease and modern finish reduce short-term expenditure, while the compact size and electric heating are important factors to weigh against the location and parking benefit.
