Nearly 600 sqft open-plan living space with Juliette balcony
Bright and spacious, this first-floor one-bedroom apartment in SE1 offers nearly 600 sqft of well-proportioned living space with a Juliette balcony overlooking private communal gardens. The modern open-plan lounge and fitted kitchen, double bedroom with built-in storage and a contemporary bathroom create a comfortable city base for professionals or first-time buyers.
The development provides useful communal amenities including an on-site gym and concierge, plus practical touches such as air conditioning and a smart meter. Transport links are excellent — Borough station is a three-minute walk — and the local area is lively with Borough Market, South Bank and Bermondsey Street nearby.
Important practical details are presented plainly: the property is leasehold with 103 years remaining, ground rent £250 pa and service charge £1,649 paid bi-annually (c. £3,298 per year). Heating is electric (room heaters), which can increase running costs compared with gas-heated homes, and there is no allocated parking included.
Overall this apartment suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-maintenance, centrally located home with good communal facilities and solid transport links. Buyers should verify service charge inclusions, parking options and lease details with their solicitor before exchange.
