Summary - 84, John Silkin Lane, LONDON SE8 5BE
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free apartment with parking near Canada Water transport links.
Top-floor two double bedrooms, lots of natural light
A top-floor two double-bedroom apartment arranged across approximately 698 sq ft, offered chain-free and ready to occupy. The flat benefits from generous natural light, a sensible living/dining layout and a convenient off-street parking space — unusual for the area. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit home workers or renters.
Practical details are straightforward: the building dates from the late 1990s/early 2000s and the property is leasehold. Heating is electric via room heaters and the EPC is rated D, so expect higher running costs than gas-heated homes. The apartment is well-presented but not heavily upgraded; buyers wanting lower energy bills should budget for heating and efficiency improvements.
Positioned close to Canada Water transport links, shops and a wide range of local amenities, this flat will appeal to first-time buyers seeking an accessible inner-city base or investors targeting strong rental demand from nearby students and professionals. Local schools include several rated Good, and nearby conveniences include supermarkets, cafés and regular bus and rail services.
Note the area records above-average crime figures compared with the borough and the property is in a busy, multicultural part of Deptford — strengths for connectivity and rental demand but a consideration for buyers prioritising quiet streets and low crime rates. Viewing recommended to assess the size, layout and condition in person.
