Leasehold with approximately 88 years remaining

Set on the second floor of a handsome early 20th-century building, this one-bedroom apartment offers generously proportioned rooms across c.634 sq ft. The reception room benefits from tall windows and period features, while a separate kitchen and dining room give flexible living and entertaining space.
Practical details suit buyers who prioritise location and space: excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, very low flood risk, and direct access to Elephant and Castle’s shops, eateries and transport hubs. The flat’s solid brick construction and high ceilings lend character and scope for sympathetic updating.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold with about 88 years remaining and a modest ground rent (c.£10). Heating is electric via room heaters and the building likely lacks cavity wall insulation, so energy efficiency improvements may be needed. The surrounding area is an inner-city, very deprived ward with average crime statistics.
This property will appeal to first-time buyers and investors seeking a spacious period apartment in a central location, or to buyers prepared to carry out modest refurbishment to improve comfort and running costs.
