Bright, modern and well-proportioned, this seventh-floor apartment is aimed squarely at first-time buyers seeking an affordable foothold in Wembley. The 50% shared ownership arrangement reduces upfront cost while offering a generous 890 sq ft layout with two double bedrooms and two bathrooms — one en suite — arranged around a spacious open-plan reception and kitchen. Full-height windows and a full-width balcony deliver plenty of daylight and far-reaching city views from a high-rise position.
The building is contemporary (constructed post-2012) and benefits from double glazing, underground residents’ parking spaces and a community heating/electricity scheme. Practical running costs include a service charge of about £2,964 and a moderate council tax band; the lease has around 113 years remaining. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern working-from-home needs, and the location is convenient for Alperton and Hanger Lane Underground stations.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat sold via 50% shared ownership, so full ownership and staircasing implications apply. Crime levels in the immediate area are above average, and the property forms part of a denser urban neighbourhood. These factors, plus the ongoing service charge, are important for budgeting and long-term planning.
For many first-time purchasers, the combination of reduced entry cost, generous internal space, secure parking and good transport links will outweigh the drawbacks. The apartment offers a comfortable, low-maintenance base with potential to personalise finishes and make the most of the balcony and open-plan living space.
