Compact, well-connected one-bed with parking near Waterloo and South Bank.
Top-floor one-bedroom, dual-aspect reception
This top-floor one-bedroom apartment in Century House offers a compact, low-maintenance city base in the heart of SE1. At 415 sq ft it suits a first-time buyer or pied-à-terre, with a dual-aspect living room, fitted kitchen and a spacious bedroom. The building has an allocated parking space, communal landscaped gardens and a lift, and the flat is chain-free with a long lease (167 years).
Transport links are superb: Lambeth North and Waterloo are within easy walking distance, placing the West End, South Bank attractions and major rail services minutes away. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the block benefits from an EPC B rating. The apartment is offered vacant or as a pre-let; the current tenancy produces £18,888 per year (stated yield 5.3%), making it an option for investors.
Be clear on annual costs and local context: service charges average £2,718.12 per year and heating is via electric storage heaters. The property is compact and best suited to buyers prioritising location over large internal space. Local area factors include very high crime levels and signs of wider area deprivation, which may concern some purchasers.
For buyers seeking a central, low-upkeep London base with parking and strong transport access, this apartment presents good value. For those wanting quieter streets, larger rooms or gas heating, viewing alternatives in less dense neighbourhoods would be prudent.
