Built 2007 — modern construction and low maintenance
Located close to transport and Barking amenities; area deprivation high
This one-bedroom first-floor flat in Spring Place, Barking, offers practical modern living in a low-rise 2007 development. The open-plan lounge/kitchen and private balcony bring light into the 593 sq ft layout, and lift access and a paved communal courtyard provide low-maintenance outdoor space.
The property is well placed for local amenities and transport links, making it convenient for commuting or city living. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are strong, while crime risk is very low. The flat is likely to suit a single occupant or couple, and it could work as a buy-to-let or a first home.
Important points to note: the home is leasehold with 107 years remaining, an average service charge of £2,500 and ground rent of £300 per year. The immediate area scores high for deprivation, which buyers should consider alongside the strong transport and amenity access.
Overall this flat represents a straightforward, low-maintenance option in a modern block. It offers decent space for its type, good connectivity and a contemporary finish, but the service charges, annual ground rent and local area profile are material factors for budget and long-term plans.
