Spacious chain-free period flat with lift in a gated development near riverside walks.
Chain-free large one-bedroom, approx. 613 sq ft
A large, characterful one-bedroom flat set within a gated period development, offered chain-free and ready to move into. The apartment occupies approximately 613 sq ft with generously proportioned rooms, high ceilings and strong natural light from large windows. The living room looks onto well-kept communal gardens and the building benefits from lift access.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (approx. 998 years), secure gated entry and a modest ground rent (£50). The layout is traditional with a separate kitchen-dining area, a double bedroom with storage and a family bathroom off the central hallway — a sensible plan for everyday living or renting out.
Buyers should note this is an older solid-brick building likely without cavity wall insulation (assumed) and the property uses electric storage heaters, which can increase heating costs compared with gas-fired systems. Crime in the immediate area is reported as above average — the gated setting and secure entry mitigate this but it is a material local factor to consider.
Well placed for riverside walks, Chelsea’s shops and the 170 bus over Battersea Bridge to King’s Road, this flat will suit a first-time buyer seeking character, space and transport links. It also offers renovation potential for someone wanting to update heating and fabric for improved efficiency and value.
