Share of freehold and chain free sale
Set on the first floor of a Victorian conversion in central SE1, this compact two-bedroom apartment offers city-centre living with low running maintenance and share of freehold ownership. The open-plan kitchen-reception is bright and well-proportioned for the size, while two bedrooms and a modern bathroom deliver a practical layout for its 546 sq ft. Chain free sale and double glazing throughout add straightforward convenience and comfort.
The location is the key draw: moments from Lambeth North (Bakerloo) and within easy reach of Waterloo’s mainline and Tube connections. The South Bank, Lower Marsh Market and a wide range of shops, cafés and cultural attractions are on the doorstep, making the flat suitable for commuters, first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors seeking strong amenity and transport links.
Buyers should note the apartment is small and best suited to those wanting a compact central home or an investment. The building dates from the early 20th century and external walls are assumed to have no insulation, so there is potential for improvement works (where permitted). Crime levels in the immediate area are described as very high; while this is balanced by excellent transport, fast broadband and active street life, purchasers should consider security measures and insurance costs.
Overall this is a well-presented, low-maintenance flat in a coveted central location, offering clear rental and commuter appeal, but with limited internal space and some practical considerations around fabric and local safety to factor into any purchase decision.
