Large one-bedroom flat with balcony, parking and long lease — no onward chain, ideal for first-time buyers or investors..
Chain-free vacant one-bedroom, long 112-year lease
This first-floor one-bedroom flat in SE15 is offered chain-free and vacant, with a long lease of 112 years and an EPC rating of C. The layout includes a reception room opening onto a private balcony, a separate fitted kitchen, a bathroom, external storage and an off-street parking space. Communal areas are described as well maintained.
The property suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a well-connected London base: Peckham Rye and Nunhead stations provide strong links to central London, local shops and leisure spots are close by, and broadband and mobile signal are both good. The flat’s community heating and double glazing (installed post-2002) help with running costs and comfort.
Buyers should note a few material points. The building dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and some internal finishes are dated, particularly the bedroom. The advertised total size is unusually large for a one-bedroom (1,335 sq ft) — buyers should verify the measurement and room layout. As part of a purpose-built block, there will be communal service arrangements and likely service charges linked to the community heating scheme.
The surrounding area is lively and culturally vibrant, but also classified as very deprived with average crime levels; that mix has driven recent demand from creatives and young professionals. Overall this is a practical, well-located flat with clear upside for someone prepared to refresh the interiors and confirm the size and service cost details.
