Well-connected mid-floor apartment minutes from Barking station and good schools..
749 sq ft internal space with three bedrooms
This mid-floor three-bedroom leasehold apartment offers 749 sq ft of flexible living space in Barking, a short walk from transport links and local schools. The property includes a fitted kitchen with dining area, double glazing, and a central heating system running from a mains-gas boiler.
Its location is a primary strength: excellent mobile signal, fast broadband, nearby primary and secondary schools rated Good, and close walking distance to Barking station and local amenities. A low annual service charge and a remaining lease of around 90 years support affordability for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
The block and flat show signs of wear and need maintenance. The building is a mid-20th-century red-brick block with reported damp issues in communal areas and visible maintenance needs externally. Internally the kitchen and some finishes are dated and would benefit from modernization to unlock full rental or resale value.
Practical considerations are straightforward: council tax is low and there is no flood risk. However the area records very high crime levels and is classified as very deprived, which will affect long-term desirability for some buyers. The property suits someone prioritising connectivity and value who is prepared to carry out cosmetic updates or manage rental accommodation in a challenging neighbourhood.
