A bright, well-maintained one-bedroom flat set on the first floor with a private, sunny decked balcony overlooking a quiet residential road. The open-plan living and kitchen area benefits from large floor-to-ceiling double-glazed windows with plantation shutters, and the generous double bedroom includes a large built-in wardrobe. The property measures approximately 530 sq ft and sits in a modern block constructed in the late 1990s/early 2000s.
Practical features include an allocated secure parking space, lift access, communal garden, and secure bike storage. Water rates are covered by the service charge, and the long lease (around 129 years) is a significant ownership positive for leasehold buyers. The location is a major draw: opposite Goose Green, a short walk to Peckham Rye Park, and within easy reach of East Dulwich and Peckham Rye amenities and transport links.
Buyers should note a few material points: heating is electric via room heaters rather than a gas central system, which may mean higher running costs. The annual service charge (about £2,500) and a ground rent of £620 are notable ongoing costs. The area reports above-average crime statistics, which some buyers will want to research further.
This flat suits a first-time buyer or investor looking for a ready-to-live-in home in a well-connected, inner-city neighbourhood. It offers straightforward modern living, outside space, and secure parking, with clear potential for rental appeal thanks to location and transport links.
