This spacious third-floor flat in Barking is conveniently located near excellent transport links.

There are also bus stops just 2 minutes away, which can take you to East Ham, Upton Park, Canning Town, Stratford, and Romford.
The property is situated within walking distance of Barking Park only 10 minutes away from amenities such as tennis courts, a basketball court, and a skate park. Additionally, the property is close to numerous places of worship.
Barking High Street is home to many shops such as Superdrug, Holland & Barrett, Nando’s, Starbucks, Boots, and many more. There is also the Boat House cocktail bar and several chic coffee shops nearby. You can easily access supermarkets such as Tesco, asda, and Lidl by foot. Barking Market is also available on the high street every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. You have a choice of leisure centers, gyms, and yoga studios nearby as well.
This home features high ceilings (256cm) and has a bright and spacious open-plan living area with hand-crafted oak wall shelves and floor-to-ceiling windows/double doors that open onto a Juliet balcony overlooking Barking.
The open-plan kitchen has ample built-in storage and space for more. It includes a high-quality electric hob and oven, an integrated fridge-freezer, and space for an integrated dishwasher. The home also includes a walk-in wet room shower with a heated towel rail.
There is a large double-door storage space near the entrance hallway, which houses the electric boiler, ventilation system, and washing machine. The bedroom includes built-in ceiling-height wardrobes that are guaranteed for 10 years and a king-sized Ottoman bed with ample storage underneath.
The building has three bike storage rooms across the two blocks. The building also houses rooftop solar panels that accumulate energy for resident use. The development also includes a communal garden room, which is set up to accommodate working from home with its own free Wi-Fi, exercise classes, yoga studio/socials, and much more.
Residents also have access to private allotments, outdoor seating, and outdoor table tennis within the grounds.
Homeowner experience: "This flat has been an amazing first home to help me get on the property ladder. I've been able to make the blank canvas space my own style, and the layout has been superb. I work in the city, and the transport links are brilliant. Being close to A406 has helped me to drive to nearby areas easily. Barking Park and private outside space have been incredible, and the community within the development is brilliant, where many social clubs are available. The buying process has been so easy and quick (done it in 3 weeks), and they are great at answering any questions you might have about buying your first home."
