Occupying the fifth floor of Conquest Tower, this two-bedroom apartment delivers bright, contemporary living with floor-to-ceiling windows and a winter garden that extends the main reception. The open-plan kitchen and living area, underfloor heating and quality finishes create a comfortable, low-maintenance home suited to city life. Residents benefit from a 24-hour concierge, on-site gym and roof terraces for outdoor space and city views.
Practical strengths include a long lease (990 years), excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for remote working or streaming. Transport links are a major asset: Southwark station is approximately a six-minute walk, and Waterloo is within easy reach, putting central London connections on your doorstep.
Buyers should note the running costs: a high service charge (£9,522pa) and a costly Council Tax band (F) may affect overall affordability. The property sits in an inner-city, multicultural student neighbourhood with above-average crime and an area classed as deprived; these local factors are important for buyers prioritising community profile or quiet streets.
The apartment suits those seeking a convenient central base with strong communal amenities and long-term lease security — investors seeking rental appeal or professionals wanting easy access to central London will find clear benefits. Renovation needs are minimal as the interior presents contemporary finishes, but prospective purchasers should factor in service and management costs when assessing total outgoings.
