Set on the first floor of an imposing Edwardian mansion block, this one-bedroom apartment offers bright, dual-aspect living in the heart of Nine Elms. At around 475 sq ft the layout feels generous for a one-bed, with a well-proportioned living room, feature fireplace, separate kitchen with built-in appliances and a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes. The gated development benefits from a large communal garden and a playground — a rare outdoor amenity for inner-city flats.
Transport is a clear advantage: Nine Elms Underground (Northern Line) sits just 0.1 miles away and Vauxhall is within easy reach, making commutes straightforward. The property’s period character, high ceilings and large windows create a welcoming, bright interior that will suit buyers wanting central living with historic charm.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold with about 105 years remaining, and an annual ground rent of £250. The building is solid-brick with assumed minimal wall insulation, so heating bills could be higher than modern standards; the main heating is gas boiler and radiators. Broadband speeds are average and the surrounding area is described as deprived, though local amenities and schools are strong.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer looking for a well-located, characterful home with immediate access to transport and green communal space, or an investor seeking reliable central-London rental potential. Some modernization and insulation improvements would add long-term value and comfort.
