Summary - 22 MARY DATCHELOR CLOSE LONDON SE5 7AX
1 bed 1 bath Flat
511 sq ft one-bedroom flat with open-plan living
Set within a quiet development in central Camberwell, this one-bedroom flat offers a bright open-plan living space, modern fitted kitchen and a private balcony. The 511 sq ft footprint is well laid-out with built-in storage and large windows that keep rooms airy. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit home working and city living.
Practical running costs include a service charge of approximately £3,300 per year and a nominal ground rent of £10. The property sits on a 94-year lease (leasehold) and uses a community electric heating scheme—important for buyers to check for long-term costs. Council Tax Band B is relatively affordable.
This flat is a good fit for first-time buyers wanting a central Camberwell base or buy-to-let investors seeking a city rental; nearby shops, cafés, green spaces and strong bus/rail links to central London add appeal. Note the development’s Brutalist balcony and concrete finishes may not suit all tastes, and there is no private garden. The local area shows higher deprivation metrics and average crime levels — viewings should consider neighbourhood context alongside the flat’s strengths.
