This bright third-floor apartment offers an efficient two-double-bedroom layout and a large open-plan living space with a private balcony overlooking mature communal lawns. At roughly 741 sq ft, the flat suits a first-time buyer or a couple seeking roomy city living with direct access to green space and good local amenities.
The property is chain free and comes with a long lease (about 179 years remaining). Annual service charge is £2,796 and council tax sits at Band D; these running costs are important to budget for alongside the purchase price. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent, making the home well-suited to remote working.
Location is a major strength: immediate access to Burgess Park, short walks to Camberwell and Peckham, and frequent bus links to Elephant & Castle and Oval tube stations. Local schools include several Ofsted-rated Good options and an Outstanding secondary, which will appeal to buyers with young children.
Be aware the area scores as relatively deprived with average crime levels. The apartment is in an established, inner-city neighbourhood — attractive for many but not a quiet suburban setting. The building offers communal amenities including a roof terrace, secure bike store and lift access, and the flat’s contemporary finishes reduce immediate maintenance, though communal upkeep is shared via the service charge.
