Bright two-bedroom new-build with balcony and communal roof terrace — ideal first-time buyers..
50% Shared Ownership — 50% share £260,000, full price £520,000
This two-bedroom, open-plan apartment in E14 is a modern new-build offered via Shared Ownership (50% share). The layout is bright and contemporary, with a balcony and communal roof terrace that extend living space outdoors. At 759 sq ft the flat is an average-sized city home suited to first-time buyers or young professionals seeking low-maintenance urban living.
The financial package reflects shared ownership: 50% share priced at £260,000 (full market £520,000), a 5% deposit example of £13,000 and an estimated monthly rent of £595.83 on the unsold share. Tenure is leasehold and the building uses a community heating scheme — check service charges and lease length before committing.
Practical points: there is a single bathroom, standard ceiling height and average thermal transmittance in the walls. The immediate area is inner-city and very deprived socially and economically, though crime is low and local transport, shops and amenities are excellent. Broadband and mobile signals are strong.
This property suits buyers wanting affordable access to a new-build riverside development with communal facilities. It offers good potential for city living but requires careful budgeting for service charges, rent on the retained share and long-term lease considerations.
