A bright two-bedroom ground-floor apartment offering 616 sq ft of practical living in Abbey Wood. The layout is traditional with a large lounge, separate kitchen, and a private balcony, giving easy indoor–outdoor flow for relaxing or socialising. Two double bedrooms and good built-in storage suit first-time buyers or small households seeking room to grow.
The building is an ex-local authority block from the 1930s–40s with double glazing and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the nearby Elizabeth line/Crossrail station provides quick links into central London—a clear commuter advantage.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold with 114 years remaining, a service charge around £2,105pa and a nominal ground rent. The wider area scores as very deprived and crime is above average; local community amenities and several good primary schools are nearby, but some buyers will want to assess neighbourhood safety and investment priorities.
The block shows typical wear for its age and there is scope to personalise or update finishes. For first-time owners wanting an affordable entry into the capital with strong transport links and immediate living space, this apartment offers straightforward living with clear scope to add value over time.
