Summary - ROPEWORKS, 1 FLAT 424 CUTMORE ARBORETUM PLACE BARKING IG11 7GS
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free one-bed with balcony, lift access and long lease — ideal commuter buy.
Close to Barking Station and major bus routes
This compact one-bedroom fourth-floor flat in Ropeworks sits a short walk from Barking Station, making it a practical choice for commuters and first-time buyers seeking urban convenience. The apartment includes a balcony, lift access and a long lease (approx. 132 years), and it is offered chain-free with an EWS1 certificate in place.
The internal space is small (around 420 sq ft) with an open-plan kitchen/living area and double-glazed windows. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, which could mean higher running costs. The building feels modern and secure, but buyers should note the area is classified as deprived with a higher local crime rate compared with neighbouring districts.
Running costs and formal charges are material: an average service charge of about £2,400 per year and a ground rent of £200 are payable. The flat is sold leasehold; prospective purchasers should check leasehold paperwork and allow for potential additional fees for lease packs or administration. Ideal for someone prioritising transport links and a low-entry price, but budget-conscious buyers should factor in service charges and electric heating costs.
