Summary - 20 EDWARD SQUARE LONDON SE16 5EE
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Well-located 2-bed flat with gated parking and riverside access — good first-home or investment choice.
Large reception room ideal for living and entertaining
Set on the 2nd floor of a modern riverside block, this stylish two-bedroom flat makes a practical and appealing step onto the property ladder. The large reception room and separate modern kitchen create flexible living space for everyday life and entertaining, while the main bedroom's en suite adds convenience. Allocated gated parking is a notable benefit in this part of Rotherhithe.
The flat totals around 683 sq ft and sits on a lease with about 92 years remaining — long enough for most mortgage lenders but worth noting when planning longer-term ownership. Annual outgoings include a service charge of approximately £2,500 and a ground rent of £680, the latter described as relatively high and important for budgeting.
Location is a strength: quiet square on the doorstep of the river, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and easy access to Rotherhithe station and local amenities. The neighbourhood scores highly on education and affluence, with several well-rated primary and secondary schools nearby, making the area attractive to early-stage families as well as first-time buyers.
Practical points: the building dates from the early 1990s and benefits from double glazing and mains gas heating. There are no reported flooding concerns. Crime levels are average for the area. Buyers seeking a fully modernised finish should inspect closely, as decor and fittings are described as stylish but may vary between rooms.
