Set on the Thames bank, this 2-bedroom first-floor apartment offers private riverside views from its balcony and allocated off-street parking. The building dates from the early 1990s, benefits from a lift, double glazing and mains gas heating, making it a straightforward, low-complexity home for a first purchase.
The flat is chain-free with a long 175-year lease and measures around 646 sq ft — a practical size for a starter home or buy-to-let. Transport is a strong selling point: Thamesmead town centre is close and Abbey Wood (Elizabeth line) is a short drive or bus ride away, giving fast central and Heathrow links.
Costs to note: an average service charge of around £3,000pa and a small ground rent of £250pa apply. The local area shows higher crime levels and relative deprivation, so buyers should factor neighbourhood context into valuation and insurance.
This property suits a purchaser seeking an affordable route into a riverside location or an investor targeting good transport connections. Fixtures, fittings and services have not been tested — buyers should arrange their own inspections and surveys.
