This bright third-floor apartment offers 810 sq ft of modern open-plan living in a 2019 development close to Kennington and Elephant & Castle. With two bedrooms, a balcony and secure bike storage, it suits first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance move into Zone 1 with fast transport links and plentiful local cafés and amenities.
The block benefits from a well-established community and on-site arches that house a gym, coffee shop and services. The lease has 118 years remaining and the property uses a community heating scheme—both attractive for buyers who prefer predictable maintenance over older stock.
Be clear about local context: the wider area scores high on crime and is classified as very deprived, which may concern some buyers and could affect resale/rental perception. The property is leasehold with an average ground rent of £300 and a community heating arrangement; check service charges and running costs before committing.
Overall this apartment is a convenient, contemporary Zone 1 base with sensible tenure terms and strong transport links. It will appeal to first-time buyers or small households prioritising location, community and low upfront refurbishment needs, while those sensitive to local crime statistics or long-term running costs should investigate further.
