A superb opportunity to acquire a modern and well-maintained one-bedroom apartment, offered with the significant advantage of a sitting tenant currently paying £1,475 PCM, delivering immediate rental income from day one. The property further benefits from its own allocated parking space.
Situated on the second floor, the flat is ideally positioned within close proximity to Barking Station, providing excellent transport links via the Hammersmith & City and District Lines (Zone 4), along with Barking Overground, ensuring consistent tenant demand.
Access is via a secure phone entry system leading into well-kept communal areas, with stairs rising to the second floor where the property enjoys its own private entrance. Internally, the apartment is well laid out and comprises a spacious bedroom, modern bathroom, bright lounge area, and a fitted kitchen, all presented in good order.
With strong rental income already in place, parking included, and a prime transport-led location, this is a compelling buy-to-let opportunity not to be missed.
