A split-level three-bedroom apartment arranged over three floors, offering 986 sq ft of flexible inner‑city living close to Oval and Kennington stations. The bright, south-facing reception room opens to a small balcony and provides generous day‑light for entertaining. Two larger double bedrooms plus a third bedroom with built-in storage suit sharers, a small family, or rental demand. Chain free and sold with 101 years remaining on the lease.
The flat is part of a mid‑1960s block with communal heating and a lift; the service charge is higher than average because it includes hot water, heating, insurance and ground rent. The kitchen and living areas are presented in clean, neutral finishes and the internal layout separates living and sleeping floors—useful for tenants or family privacy. Off‑street estate parking is available by permit.
Buyers should note this property is for cash purchasers only and attracts a service charge of approximately £4,887.72 per annum plus a nominal ground rent. The communal heating arrangement means you will not control boiler replacement or heating costs directly. The 101‑year lease is adequate but is shorter than a new long lease and will be a consideration for mortgage lenders and future buyers.
Positioned in a busy inner‑city neighbourhood with low crime and fast broadband, this flat benefits from proximity to Kennington and Burgess Park, frequent buses and Northern Line connections. The size and layout make it suitable for professional sharers or as a rental investment with immediate let potential subject to refurbishment and individual letting strategy.
