Secure, low-maintenance riverside flat with parking and long lease.
West-facing balcony with canal views
Set on Brentford’s award-winning ‘The Island’ development, this one-bedroom waterside apartment offers secure, low-maintenance riverside living with underground parking and 24-hour concierge. The open-plan living area flows to a west-facing balcony overlooking the canal, bringing evening light and a calm outlook for relaxing or entertaining. Built in 2005, the building’s modern design, lifts and double glazing make it a comfortable, contemporary home.
Practical strengths include a long lease (978 years), allocated garage parking and underfloor heating via a mains-gas boiler. The property is being sold chain-free, simplifying purchase for buyers wanting a quick move. Local amenities, frequent buses and Brentford mainline station are within easy reach, plus a good selection of primary and secondary schools nearby.
Buyers should note important negatives: the development sits in a high flood-risk area, which may affect insurance costs and future resilience measures. Service charges are very high (£48,000) and ground rent (£400) applies; these ongoing costs are material and should be checked carefully. The flat is average-sized at about 560 sq ft and will suit buyers prioritising location and convenience over expansive living space.
