This well-presented one-bedroom apartment occupies a low-rise modern block on a quiet cul-de-sac in SE11, a short walk from Kennington and Elephant & Castle stations. The open-plan living/kitchen receives good natural light and opens onto a private balcony, giving useful outdoor space for a central London flat.
At about 499 sq ft the layout feels compact but well-proportioned for a single occupant or couple. Neutral finishes and timber-effect flooring make the apartment move-in ready; 108 years remain on the lease and the property is offered chain free, which simplifies a quick purchase.
Budget-wise, note the annual service charge is relatively high at £4,511 and ground rent is £350. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which may affect running costs and tenant appeal for some buyers. There are no exceptional views and outdoor space is limited to the balcony.
This home will suit a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor who prioritises Zone 1 location, transport links and low maintenance living. With nearby shops, parks and good schools, the flat provides a practical, central base with potential to personalise over time.
