A spacious ground-floor one-bedroom apartment arranged around a generous 71 sq m (765 sq ft) footprint, rare for a one-bed in SE16. The flat benefits from its own front door, private rear garden accessed from both lounge and bedroom, and an off-street parking space — useful extras for first-time buyers wanting outdoor space and easy kerbside access.
Practical ownership features include a share of freehold, an EPC grade C and no chain, making move-in straightforward. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent, and South Bermondsey station and Overground connections put London Bridge a short ride away, which suits commuters and those relying on public transport.
Known considerations are clear: the lease has c.88 years remaining and the annual service charge is around £2,300. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. Ground rent is minimal (£10 listed) but buyers should confirm details and service arrangements before exchange.
Overall, this is a roomy, well-presented starter home with private outside space and parking — appealing to first-time buyers who prioritise size, transport links and a garden, while accepting ongoing service costs and electric heating.
