Set on the second floor of a popular riverside development, this one-bedroom apartment offers straightforward, move-in-ready living with a private balcony and river views. The open-plan reception and kitchen create a bright, sociable space while large windows deliver plenty of natural light. Lift access and maintained communal grounds add everyday convenience.
Practical details are buyer-friendly: a long lease of 175 years, fast local broadband and low local crime. The property measures approximately 545 sq ft, making it a comfortable size for a one-bedroom London apartment, and the development benefits from 24-hour security and a staffed estate office.
Note the apartment is heated by electric storage heaters, which typically cost more to run than gas central heating, and the property is leasehold with an average annual service charge of around £3,282 and a small ground rent of £175. These running costs and the storage heating are the most significant considerations for budgeting buyers.
For first-time buyers seeking a secure riverside address with good transport links (a nine-minute walk to King George V DLR) and solid long-lease tenure, this property presents a convenient, low-risk entry into the area’s popular riverside market.
