Summary - ELLERY HOUSE FLAT 24 BECKWAY STREET LONDON SE17 1TN
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright one-bedroom with balcony and long lease — close to Elephant & Castle and Burgess Park.
Top-floor one-bedroom flat with private balcony
A top-floor one-bedroom flat with a private balcony, long lease (104 years) and bright, open-plan living makes this a practical London entry point. At about 522 sq ft (48.5m²) the apartment suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking straightforward city living close to transport and green space.
Located a 10-minute walk from Elephant & Castle and within easy reach of Burgess Park, the flat benefits from excellent links and a wide range of local amenities — shops, cafés, supermarkets and regular bus routes. The converted open-plan kitchen, exposed brick details and wood-style flooring give the apartment a contemporary feel within a mid-century block.
Be realistic about running costs and the neighbourhood: the current average service charge is around £3,000 pa and the property sits in a very deprived area with very high recorded crime. Heating is supplied via a community mains-gas scheme and the block’s cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated, which could affect bills and future retrofit work. Double glazing was installed before 2002.
For buyers prepared to accept the location’s challenges, this flat offers immediate rental or owner-occupation potential, a long lease, and reasonable scope for value improvement through modest refurbishment and insulation upgrades. The combination of transport links, outside space and long lease length is the main appeal here.
