Set high in the landmark One The Elephant, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment on the 34th floor offers turnkey living with strong rental and lifestyle appeal. The open-plan living space, floor-to-ceiling windows and private balcony deliver plentiful light and city views, while modern integrated appliances and contemporary finishes reduce immediate upkeep for new owners.
Residents benefit from extensive building amenities — 24-hour concierge, residents' lounge with cinema screen, roof terrace with grow garden and a landscaped reading garden — which bolster lettability and everyday convenience. The development’s energy-efficient design and recent 2016 construction mean the property is relatively low maintenance compared with older stock.
Notable costs and location realities are presented clearly: an above-average service charge (£6,000pa), council tax above average and a ground rent of £400. The building uses a community heating scheme. The surrounding neighbourhood is inner-city and cosmopolitan with excellent transport links, abundant amenities and fast broadband, but it also records very high crime levels and local area deprivation — factors that may influence family buyers or tenant profiles.
This property is chain-free with a long 240-year lease, making it straightforward to transact and attractive to investors seeking a Zone 1 asset or buyers wanting immediate occupation. Considerations for buyers: weigh the strong central location, concierge-led facilities and turnkey condition against ongoing service costs and local safety statistics when assessing value and rental expectations.
