This bright two-bedroom duplex in a purpose-built block offers practical family living across two floors. The separate kitchen and generous reception give space for daily life, while two ample bedrooms suit a small family or sharers. Lift access and a mid-terrace siting make the flat easy to access from communal areas.
At about 738 sq ft, the layout provides useful storage and living space, and nearby green spaces, shops and All Saints DLR make everyday errands and commutes straightforward. Several local primary and secondary schools have strong Ofsted ratings, which is a clear benefit for families.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly: the property is leasehold, the block dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, and the double glazing was installed before 2002 and may need upgrading. The area records high crime and is classified as very deprived, which will concern some purchasers and can affect resale and rental values.
This flat will suit a buyer seeking a well-sized, well-located home with straightforward access to transport and schools, or an investor prepared to accept the neighbourhood profile. Practical updates and selective improvements would add value and improve comfort.
