Bright, well-presented two-double-bedroom flat on Neckinger Estate, suited to first-time buyers or sharers seeking a practical London base. The apartment offers a large reception, separate kitchen, modern bathroom and helpful built-in storage, all arranged efficiently across about 603 sq ft. Bermondsey Station is only 0.4 miles away and the immediate area is lively with delis, cafés and markets.
The property benefits from a long lease (105 years remaining), permit parking and an affordable ground rent of £10. Double glazing and mains gas heating with boiler and radiators are in place. Annual service charge is £1,838 and council tax band is very low, keeping running costs reasonable for central London.
Buyers should note material considerations: the flat is in a deprived neighbourhood with above-average local crime; communal exterior walkways and a mid-terrace block built 1900–1929 mean some communal maintenance may be needed over time. The building’s solid brick walls are assumed to lack insulation, and the double-glazing installation date is unknown. The apartment is compact for two bedrooms (small overall size), so suitability depends on space expectations.
Overall this is a practical, well-located two-bedroom London flat with long lease security and good transport links. It offers a straightforward, lower-running-cost option for first-time buyers prepared to accept inner-city realities and communal estate living.
