A bright one-bedroom apartment positioned on the first floor of a gated development close to Deptford mainline station. The living room is spacious with room to dine and an open-plan kitchen. A large bedroom and a bathroom with shower over bath complete the main accommodation.
Practical features include triple-glazed windows, gas central heating on a community scheme, a combi boiler and generous loft storage that could be converted subject to planning permission. Residents benefit from communal gardens and very low flood risk. Service charge is modest at £654 per year and 114 years remain on the lease.
Buyers should note the location sits within an inner-city, very deprived area with very high recorded crime and slow broadband speeds. These factors affect resale appeal and day-to-day convenience despite excellent mobile signal and strong local transport links into central London and Greenwich.
This property suits a first-time buyer or investor looking for an affordable entry into SE8 with potential to add value (loft conversion or cosmetic updates). It offers practical, modern fixtures but requires realistic expectations about the neighbourhood and connectivity limitations.
