About this home
*CHAIN FREE*
Positioned within a convenient residential setting in Belvedere, this well-proportioned first-floor apartment offers an excellent opportunity for buyers looking for a well-connected home with scope to add their own style and value. Measuring approximately 321 sq ft, the property has a surprisingly practical layout, with a separate bedroom, generous reception room, fitted kitchen, bathroom and useful storage cupboard, making it feel more like a compact one-bedroom apartment than a conventional studio.
The property would benefit from cosmetic updating, presenting a straightforward opportunity for a new owner to modernise the interiors and create a contemporary home to their own taste. Further benefits include allocated parking, an increasingly valuable feature, particularly for those commuting or looking for the convenience of having a designated space.
The location is a major attraction, with excellent transport connections nearby and Abbey Wood within easy reach, providing access to the Elizabeth line and fast connections into central London and beyond. Belvedere and the surrounding area offer a good selection of everyday amenities, shops, cafés and local services, while a number of parks and open green spaces are also close by, providing plenty of opportunity for outdoor recreation.
The property is offered with approximately 67 years remaining on the current lease, so prospective purchasers should take this into consideration when assessing the property and any future lease extension requirements. Overall, this is a well-located and realistically priced opportunity for a first-time buyer, investor or purchaser looking for a project with clear potential to improve and personalise.
