This first-floor one-bedroom apartment at Shakespeare Court offers a practical, light-filled base for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The reception room and double bedroom are well-proportioned for a 444 sq ft flat, while the neutral décor and modern kitchen mean you can move in with minimal work.
Key strengths include long leasehold security (lease to 2989), off-street parking and very good transport links with Peckham Rye and nearby stations providing fast journeys into central London. Peckham Rye Park and a wide range of cafés, shops and amenities are moments away, supporting both lifestyle and rental appeal.
The flat is not without drawbacks. The surrounding neighbourhood records higher crime levels and is classified as deprived, which may affect some buyers’ perceptions and yield stability. The apartment is average-sized and the bathroom is compact, so space is limited compared with larger two-bed alternatives.
Overall this is a straightforward, well-located property for someone wanting an easy-to-manage London home or an entry-level rental in a popular South East location. The exceptionally long lease and low ongoing decorative needs reduce immediate costs, but buyers should weigh local area factors when deciding.
