This bright, chain-free first-floor studio offers compact, move-in-ready accommodation ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The flat has been freshly carpeted and fitted with a new oven and hob, and benefits from double glazing and electric storage heating. With an L-shaped living/bedroom and useful hallway storage, the layout makes efficient use of 355 sq ft.
Transport links are a key strength: Erith station is within walking distance and the Elizabeth Line at Abbey Wood is just two stops away, providing fast journeys into central London. Residents' parking to the front of the block and local shops, bus routes and amenities are all close by, supporting easy daily living and rental appeal.
This is a leasehold property with c.153 years remaining — a long lease for buyers to note — and attracts an annual service charge of £1,238.96 and a modest ground rent of £100. Heating is by electric storage radiators, and mains electricity is the primary fuel source, which may be more expensive than gas alternatives.
The flat sits in a mixed urban area with some local deprivation and average crime levels; buyers should weigh local factors against the strong commuter links and low flood risk. Overall, the property offers straightforward, low-maintenance accommodation with clear rental and commuter potential, but limited living space and running-cost considerations.
