This newly renovated first-floor apartment offers a compact, ready-to-move-in home within walking distance of Abbey Wood Crossrail — a strong commuter benefit for first-time buyers. The open-plan living room and contemporary kitchen create a bright, efficient living space, while the modern bathroom and double glazing provide low-immediate-maintenance fixtures.
Two bedrooms suit a small family, couple, or sharers; the larger room and a useful second bedroom give flexibility for a home office. Residents also have access to well-kept communal gardens, adding outdoor space that’s rare for this price band in the area.
Practical details are clear: the flat is leasehold with 113 years remaining and an average service charge of £1,600 per year. Broadband speeds are fast and mains gas central heating keeps running costs typical for the area. There is no flood risk recorded for the property.
Buyers should note the neighbourhood has higher-than-average crime rates and the wider area is classified as very deprived — factors that can affect future resale and rental demand. The building dates from the mid-20th century with solid brick walls and pre-2002 double glazing; while the flat is newly renovated, the wider estate and fabric may require longer-term upkeep or future improvement works.
