The open-plan living/dining area and sizeable windows deliver good natural light, while a principal bedroom with en-suite adds practical comfort. At 642 sq ft the flat is an average-sized, manageable home for a first-time buyer or downsizer.
The property is offered in fair condition and needs renovation and cosmetic updating, giving a clear opportunity to add value and personalise finishes. The lease has 134 years remaining, service charge is about £1,800 pa and ground rent is a low £25 pa — all favourable for long-term ownership. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and local transport links, Greenhithe station and Bluewater shopping are within easy reach.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the flat requires renovation, and the wider area records higher crime levels, which may affect insurance and personal security perceptions. Council tax is moderate. The riverside setting and communal maintenance reduce exterior upkeep, but interior works will be the owner’s responsibility.
Overall this apartment suits someone seeking an affordable entry into riverside living with clear scope to improve value through updating. It will particularly suit first-time buyers or investors prepared to carry out renovation, and those who prioritise location, transport connectivity and fast digital services over a completely turnkey finish.
