This bright, modern two-bedroom apartment on the 2nd floor offers open-plan living and direct views over Southmere Lake. The layout includes two bathrooms and a balcony, creating a comfortable home for weekday commuters and weekend watersport enthusiasts. Residents benefit from concierge, co-working spaces and a communal cinema room that enhance convenience and lifestyle.
Transport links are a major asset: Abbey Wood station is a short walk away with fast services (Elizabeth, Southeastern and Thameslink lines) — Canary Wharf in around 11 minutes and Central London within 30 minutes. The development sits beside lakeside walks, cycle routes, and green spaces, giving a rare mix of urban connections and outdoor leisure.
This is a new-build leasehold with an exceptionally long lease (996 years) and modern finishes throughout. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are excellent, supporting remote work and streaming. The property is offered at a competitive price for the area and presents straightforward move-in-ready accommodation.
Buyers should note notable local context: the wider area shows higher-than-average crime rates and pockets of deprivation. School standards vary locally, from Outstanding to Requires Improvement. As a leasehold apartment in a regenerating area, the home suits buyers seeking convenience, waterside living and future capital growth rather than those wanting a fully established high-street neighbourhood.
