This ground-floor two-bedroom flat offers a compact, well-presented home with private landscaped garden and direct outdoor access — ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a move-in-ready London property. The open-plan kitchen/living room has contemporary fittings, integrated appliances and herringbone wood flooring, creating a bright, cohesive main living space suited to cooking, dining and home working.
Practical benefits include a long 146-year lease, low flood risk, off-street parking availability and a below-average service charge (£246). The property is chain-free and close to Canning Town transport links, giving easy commutes across the city and appeal for buy-to-let purchasers wanting straightforward rental demand.
Be clear on the compromises: the flat is small at approximately 504 sq ft, set in an area classified as very deprived with above-average crime rates. The building is older (c.1900–1929) with solid brick walls and assumed lack of insulation, which may affect future energy costs and any improvement plans. Buyers should also confirm energy performance details and consider potential upgrading costs if higher thermal efficiency is required.
Overall, this is a turnkey-feeling starter home or rental opportunity that balances contemporary interior quality with central Canning Town convenience. It will particularly suit purchasers prioritising location, outdoor space and minimal immediate refurbishment, while those sensitive to area statistics or seeking larger accommodation should note the size and local context.
