Chain-free two-bedroom period flat with large private balcony moments from Borough station.
595 sq ft two-bedroom period apartment with generous reception
A well-presented two-bedroom period apartment offering 595 sq ft of flexible living space in central SE1. The main reception is bright and southeast-facing, with a larger-than-average private balcony that suits morning coffee or evening relaxation. Both bedrooms are double size and the layout includes generous hallway storage and a separate kitchen.
The building is a low-rise, brick period block set around communal gardens, and the location is a standout: Borough Market, South Bank and multiple transport hubs are all within easy walking distance. Broadband and mobile signals are excellent, and residents benefit from permit on-street parking and communal outdoor space.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with 88 years remaining, a service charge of circa £1,698pa and ground rent of £10pa. The property has double glazing installed before 2002 and solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated), and the communal area is served by gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
This home will suit a first-time buyer or investor seeking a central SE1 base with good rental potential and low flooding risk. Buyers should note the relatively short lease length and above-average local crime levels when assessing long-term costs and suitability.
