Affordable central Barking flat with balcony and excellent transport links.
One-bedroom flat, approximately 519 sq ft
A compact one-bedroom flat on Curzon Crescent that suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking low running costs and transport links. The living space is sensibly laid out with laminate flooring, a fitted kitchen and a small balcony overlooking communal gardens. The building dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and has characteristic concrete/brutalist styling.
Practical positives include a very low council tax (Band A), double glazing and excellent mobile and fast broadband — useful for home working. The flat is just a short walk from Overground and Central line stations, giving direct access into central London and wider Barking amenities.
Material facts: the property is leasehold, has electric storage heaters and an EPC rating of D, so energy bills and comfort will depend on heating use. The local area is described as very deprived, which may affect long-term capital growth and rental demand considerations. Communal gardens are shared and maintenance obligations will sit with the freeholder/management (details to check).
At about 519 sq ft, the flat offers a manageable footprint for a first home or rental unit. It requires only modest updating to modernise heating and improve the EPC if future-proofing or tenant appeal is a priority.
