Summary - Kinglake Estate, Elephant and Castle, London, SE17 SE17 2RB
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious 2-bed flat by Burgess Park — auction sale with prior-purchase option.
Spacious reception room with large windows and natural light
This spacious 2-bedroom, 1st-floor flat on Kinglake Estate offers practical living for a first-time buyer or investor. The layout includes two double bedrooms, a generous reception room, separate kitchen and a balcony overlooking the estate — all within a compact 590 sq ft footprint.
Situated on the edge of Burgess Park, the flat benefits from immediate access to green space and local amenities, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Transport connections across Elephant & Castle are convenient, and nearby schools include several rated Good or Outstanding.
Important purchase notes: the property is leasehold (approx. 102 years remaining) and will be sold at auction; prior-auction purchase is possible. Annual service charge is around £1,446 and ground rent is £10. The building dates from the 1950–66 period with solid brick walls likely lacking cavity insulation, which may affect energy efficiency and future heating costs.
Overall, this property suits a buyer seeking a well-located, ready-to-live-in flat with refurbishment potential rather than a turnkey luxury finish. Auction sale and ownership costs should be factored into purchase plans.
