This well-presented one-bedroom ground-floor apartment offers a ready-to-move-into home in Hampton Wick, less than a five-minute walk from Hampton Wick station. The flat benefits from direct access to a covered patio and well-kept communal gardens, plus an allocated off-street parking space — practical conveniences for city commuters or a first-time buyer.
Internally the layout is efficient: a bright living/dining room, fitted galley kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom within approximately 480 sq ft. The flat has been newly renovated and finished neutrally, so there is minimal immediate work required. Chain-free sale and a very long lease (944 years) make the tenure straightforward for mortgage and purchase planning.
Be aware of the heating and running-cost implications: main heating is electric storage heaters and the property uses electricity as its primary fuel, which can be more expensive than gas. The brick block dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and cavity walls are noted as originally built without added insulation (assumed), which could affect energy efficiency unless upgraded.
Ongoing costs are reasonable but should be factored in: annual service charge is about £1,162 and ground rent is £15 per year. The flat suits a single occupant or couple seeking a low-maintenance, well-located home with good local schools and green space nearby, or an investor looking for a city-edge rental in an affluent area.
