Light-filled one-bedroom first-floor apartment with a very long lease and allocated parking, suited to first-time buyers or investors seeking a straightforward, low-maintenance home. At about 489 sq ft the layout is traditional and practical: a double bedroom, open-plan lounge with a Juliet balcony and a semi open-plan fitted kitchen. The building is contemporary, built around 1996–2002, and benefits from double glazing and fast broadband/strong mobile signal for modern living.
The property is offered with a 977-year lease (976 years noted elsewhere) which effectively removes typical lease length concerns. Running costs include an average service charge of £2,200 and a small ground rent of £150. The apartment’s EPC rating is D and there is some visible wear to the kitchen that would benefit from light modernization.
Buyers should note mixed heating information: the sales text references gas central heating, while records also list electric room heaters — this should be verified. The area has excellent transport links to Woolwich and the Elizabeth Line, but crime levels are reported as high; consider this for both family security and investment yield planning.
Overall this is a compact, well-located flat with long lease security and parking — good for a commuter, first-time buyer or investor prepared to update the kitchen and confirm heating details.
