Set on the first floor, this one-bedroom flat offers a bright, open reception room with high ceilings and large windows that maximise natural light. The layout includes a modern kitchen, a double bedroom and a neat bathroom, all within a compact 460 sq ft footprint. A separate utility/storage room adds practical space often missing in similar apartments.
The property is being sold at online auction on 27 November 2025, so it may suit someone seeking a quick purchase or an investor comfortable with auction timelines. The flat is leasehold and has an Energy Performance Certificate rating of F; heating is via electric room heaters and the building has secondary glazing and solid brick walls with assumed no insulation, so energy costs should be expected to be higher than average.
Located just off Walworth Road with Elephant & Castle transport links nearby, the area provides extensive shops, amenities and several good primary and secondary schools within walking distance. However, the neighbourhood records higher crime levels and the local area is relatively deprived, factors to weigh when considering resale or rental prospects.
Overall this is a practical, well-presented one-bedroom for someone prioritising location and immediate move-in over low running costs. It offers renovation potential to improve energy efficiency and long-term value, but buyers should budget for potential modernisation and factor in leasehold and auction considerations.
