Light-filled, newly renovated one-bedroom apartment in SW11, arranged over approximately 50 sq m (538 sq ft). The west-facing living room has large windows and looks onto a tree-lined square, giving a quieter aspect despite the inner-city location. The flat was stripped and refurbished a few years ago: new floors, plumbing, rewiring, and certified asbestos removal were completed to preserve a pared-back industrial character. The compact contemporary kitchen and bathroom are functional and modern. Minor finishing works may be desirable but nothing structural is reported.
This is a leasehold property with a notable service charge (average £1,454). Council tax is very low. The building sits close to everyday amenities – Tesco Metro seconds away, cafés, shops and Battersea Park within a short walk – and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, making it well suited to rental tenants or a professional buyer wanting a well-connected central base.
Important downsides are clear: the area records high crime and is classified as deprived, and the sale is cash buyers only. Those factors will influence mortgage availability, insurance costs and some buyer suitability. The apartment’s size is average for a one-bedroom London flat and offers ample storage, but purchasers should be prepared for ongoing service charges and typical inner-city considerations.
Overall this flat will suit a cash investor or a buyer who prioritises location, connectivity and a ready-to-rent, renovated interior over greenfield tranquillity. It offers immediate occupation potential or straightforward rental income in a popular tenant area near Battersea and transport links, provided buyers accept the locality’s safety profile and the leasehold/service-charge commitments.
