This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in Felling offers an affordable entry into a well-kept modern development. The living room is generous for an apartment of 560 sq ft, and the fitted kitchen, UPVC double glazing and allocated off-street parking make day-to-day life straightforward. Security is good with a controlled communal entrance and low-maintenance landscaped grounds.
The property is leasehold with a very long unexpired term (c.973 years) and an EPC in the B-range (EPC score shown as 77), which supports lower running costs. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the main fuel is electricity — simple to operate but likely more costly than gas in this area. Council tax is very cheap.
This apartment suits first-time buyers seeking an inexpensive, move-in-ready home or investors after a manageable rental opportunity close to transport and local amenities. Be aware of local context: the area is described as deprived with above-average crime statistics, and the block sits in a larger conurbation environment. The flat’s overall size is modest and there is only one bathroom, so consider space needs carefully.
A basic inspection is recommended to verify internal condition and fittings. The property offers clear value for buyers prioritising location, low upkeep and long lease security, offset by modest accommodation and local-area challenges.
