Set within a quiet part of the building, this one-bedroom apartment offers roomy, light-filled accommodation with period character and useful parking to the rear. High ceilings, wooden floors and built-in shelving give the living space a mid-century feel, while the fitted kitchen and modern shower room provide everyday comfort. The long lease (148 years) and low service charge make this an economical city base or starter home.
Practical features include double glazing (install date unknown), gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, secure phone entry, bicycle racks and off-street parking — a rare convenience for the area. Greenwich town centre, local shops and DLR connections are walkable, and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are nearby, supporting either a first home or a rental proposition.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the building dates from 1930–1949 with solid brick walls likely without added insulation, and broadband speeds are only average. The neighbourhood records higher crime levels than average, which may concern some purchasers. There is clear potential to improve energy efficiency and cosmetic finishes if desired, offering scope to add value with targeted works.
Overall this apartment suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a central, characterful one-bed with long leasehold security and low running costs. It delivers convenient transport links and parking, balanced by straightforward upgrade opportunities and the need to consider insulation, security and connectivity when budgeting.
