This modern one-bedroom apartment on Southwark Bridge Road offers a bright, well-proportioned 628 sq ft layout with a winter garden and floor-to-ceiling windows that bring abundant natural light. The open-plan reception and integrated kitchen suit a professional or couple seeking turnkey city living with high-quality finishes.
Residents benefit from full-service building amenities — 24-hour concierge, gym, cinema room and a business suite — that add convenience and rental appeal. The apartment sits in a high-rise city development close to Elephant & Castle transport links, shops and eateries, making daily commuting and city life straightforward.
Practical points are clear and should factor into any purchase decision: the property is leasehold (long lease remaining), heated via a community scheme (limited individual control), and carries a relatively high annual service charge of £4,381. Local crime levels are above average for the area, which some buyers may weigh against the secure concierge service.
Overall this flat will suit an investor seeking a well-equipped, centrally located rental or a working professional/couple wanting low-maintenance, amenity-rich urban living. The strong communal facilities and long lease are positives; however, ongoing service charges and community heating should be confirmed against personal budget and lifestyle preferences before proceeding.
