Local area: fast broadband but high area deprivation
Light-filled one-bedroom apartment on the first floor of a modern mid-rise building in Woolwich. The open-plan living area flows to a south-west-facing balcony, making this a comfortable city base with good natural light. Wooden floors and an integrated kitchen add contemporary convenience, while the double bedroom and three-piece bathroom provide practical everyday living space.
Residents benefit from a concierge, communal gardens and secure bike storage, with Woolwich DLR, Overground and the Elizabeth Line within easy walking distance. Local amenities are comprehensive — supermarkets, cafés, GP surgery and eateries are all nearby, and Woolwich Common offers green space for weekend walks. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is average.
This is a leasehold property with c.116 years remaining, an annual service charge of £1,942.88 (2025) and ground rent of £390.66 (to 2028). The vendor’s anticipated rental figure suggests a c.6.4% gross yield for investors, but buyers should factor ongoing charges and the remaining lease length into affordability and resale prospects. The building is served by a community heating scheme.
Ideal for first-time buyers wanting direct transport links to central London or investors seeking a lettable, low-maintenance flat. Note the local area scores high on deprivation indices, and communal grounds are small — this is an urban apartment rather than a suburban house. Overall, a practical, well-connected one-bedroom with ready-to-use accommodation and clear running costs to consider.
