A compact, well-presented one-bedroom apartment arranged for efficient city living. The open-plan living area receives good natural light and offers space for a lounge and small home working zone. The fitted kitchen and modern bathroom keep upkeep straightforward, making this a low-maintenance choice for a first home or a rental let.
Positioned within easy walking distance of Bermondsey Street, Maltby Street Market and excellent transport links (Bermondsey and London Bridge stations), the location is the flat’s strongest asset. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support remote working and streaming, while nearby cafés, eateries and leisure amenities add everyday convenience.
Practical realities: the property is leasehold and connected to a community heating scheme; exact lease length and service charge details should be confirmed. The building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and external walls are assumed to be uninsulated cavity construction, so there is potential to improve thermal performance subject to lease and building rules.
This chain-free apartment is best suited to first-time buyers, single professionals or buy-to-let investors seeking a compact central-London base with strong local amenities. Note the wider area is classified as deprived and local crime levels are average; viewings will show whether the balance of location and size meets your priorities.
