This bright two-bedroom, two-bath seventh-floor flat in Hardwicks Square offers a practical city home with generous living space and a large private balcony. The open-plan kitchen/reception benefits from double-aspect windows that flood the apartment with light and provide pleasant urban views across the development. Two double bedrooms and built-in storage suit sharers or a small family seeking convenience and space.
Practical advantages include an allocated off-street parking space, a long lease (115 years) and chain-free sale, which simplify moving and future resale. Transport links are close by—Wandsworth Town station and multiple bus routes—while local amenities include shops, cafes, Southside shopping centre and several well-rated schools nearby.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property on a community heating scheme, with a service charge of £7,000 pa and ground rent of £400 pa (council tax band E). The sizeable service charge is above average and will affect running costs. The immediate neighbourhood is an inner-city, multicultural and largely student-populated area with some local deprivation; crime levels are average.
Overall, this is a well-presented, modern apartment that suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors looking for a ready-to-move-in property with parking and good transport links, provided they account for the higher ongoing service and tax costs.
