This modern ground-floor flat in Thamesmead offers strong practical features: two large bedrooms, a generous kitchen-diner and private garden with superb River Thames views. The apartment is part of a contemporary 2003–2006 terrace block, has gas central heating, double glazing and an allocated off-street parking space. At about 681 sq ft, it suits buyers seeking roomy accommodation with outdoor space close to local shops and transport.
Important practical considerations: the property is leasehold with 76 years remaining — some mortgage lenders may refuse to lend. A public notice states an offer of £210,000 has been received; higher offers must be submitted in writing before exchange. The surrounding area is classified as deprived with higher crime levels, which may affect security perceptions and resale.
Best suited to cash buyers, investors prepared to manage a shortish lease, or buyers planning a lease extension. The flat’s riverside outlook, private garden and parking provide genuine appeal, but the lease length, local crime statistics and area deprivation are material negatives to factor into any offer.
Nearby amenities include Thamesmead Shopping Centre, several primary and secondary schools (mixed Ofsted ratings), good broadband speeds and bus links. Buyers should check mortgage options given the lease length and verify any local factors important to families or renters.
