A bright two-double-bedroom flat moments from the river, ideal for first-time buyers seeking space and transport links. The apartment offers a large reception room, modern kitchen and bathroom, and an unusually private garden for a central location. At approximately 707 sq ft the layout feels roomy and practical for everyday living.
The flat sits in a 1930s mid-terrace building with period character: sash windows, wooden floors and exposed Victorian brick in places. It benefits from double glazing (pre-2002) and gas central heating. Bermondsey tube is only 0.2 miles away and London Bridge 0.6 miles — excellent for commuting, local cafés, markets and riverside walks.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold (116 years remaining) with an annual service charge of about £1,950 and a low council tax band. The building’s solid brick construction likely has no cavity insulation, and some internal areas show signs they would benefit from modernisation where finishes are dated. Crime levels in the immediate area are higher than average and the wider neighbourhood has pockets of deprivation, facts buyers should weigh alongside the location and transport advantages.
Chain free sale and very low flood risk make this a straightforward purchase for someone wanting an accessible central London home with outside space. For buyers looking to add value, modest updating and insulation improvements could increase comfort and long-term appeal.
