This newly refurbished three-double-bedroom apartment occupies the entire third floor of a handsome early 20th-century building in Borough, a short walk from Borough tube. The apartment is bright and lateral with large period windows, high ceilings and a double-aspect layout that gives rooms good natural light. A brand-new open-plan kitchen/reception and a luxury bathroom mean the flat is move-in ready for professionals or a small family.
Practical highlights include a private off-street parking space — a rare convenience in SE1 — a long lease and modern appliances fitted in the new kitchen. At around 720 sq ft the flat is compact for three bedrooms, but the layout is designed to maximise living space and storage. Nearby transport, shops, Borough Market and several outstanding primary schools make the location very convenient.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property and the building’s original solid-brick walls are likely uninsulated, which could mean modest running costs despite the new interior. There is only one bathroom for three double bedrooms, which may be a constraint for larger households or sharers. Local crime levels are reported as very high for the area, so consider security measures and personal safety when viewing.
Overall this apartment offers a stylish, low-maintenance central-London base with strong location benefits and rare private parking — suited to professionals, a small family or an investor seeking a sought-after Borough address.
