Set within a converted Victorian school in a gated cul-de-sac, this split-level one-bedroom apartment offers characterful living with practical perks. The bright reception benefits from high ceilings, large windows and exposed brickwork, while a mezzanine bedroom and large walk-in storage/dressing room maximise the 524 sq ft layout. Secure gated parking and well-tended communal gardens add rarity and convenience in this central SE1 location.
The building provides daytime porter service and comes with a very long lease (approximately 968 years). It is chain-free, which can simplify moving timescales for a first-time buyer or investor. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; the property retains solid brick walls in keeping with its period origins, and the internal finish includes wood parquet flooring and an industrial loft aesthetic.
Buyers should note a few material considerations. Annual service charges are around £2,546 and ground rent is £100 per year. The immediate area is classified as having very high crime and local deprivation indicators—important for buyers weighing safety and resale. Broadband speeds are average and the property is leasehold. No structural defects are stated, but the solid-brick construction suggests limited wall insulation typical of older conversions.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer seeking character, convenient City-edge living and secure parking, or an investor after a centrally located, chain-free one-bed with long lease. Viewing is recommended to assess the split-level layout and storage fully.
