This bright fourth-floor one-bedroom apartment offers a practical, modern home in a well-insulated, energy-efficient development. Full-height windows and an east-facing balcony bring morning light into the reception; the semi open-plan kitchen and handy entrance storage suit a streamlined urban lifestyle. At about 492 sqft, the layout is comfortable for a single buyer or couple seeking low-maintenance living close to transport.
The property is offered as shared ownership (50% share at £162,500; full value £325,000) through Clarion. Monthly costs include shared ownership rent (£351.27) and a service charge (about £165.32), and buyers must meet minimum deposit and income thresholds and complete the shared ownership application. The lease has around 110–111 years remaining and the building has a lift and communal garden.
Practical considerations: there is no parking, pets are not permitted (except assistance animals), and the communal heating scheme means limited individual control over heating. The surrounding area is an inner-city, mixed employment neighbourhood with some deprivation and average crime levels, though local schools and fast transport links (Devons Road DLR, Bromley-by-Bow Station) are close by.
This apartment will suit first-time buyers who qualify for shared ownership and want a modern, low-upkeep home with good transport access. It also offers potential for those who plan to staircase later, but purchasers should factor ongoing service charges, rent, eligibility rules and the no-parking policy into affordability calculations.
