1 bed 1 bath Flat
Move-in-ready one-bedroom with large terrace, near Burgess Park and transport links.
South-facing roof terrace nearly half the indoor floor area
Bright, contemporary one-bedroom apartment on the third floor of a modern block, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking move-in-ready urban living. Large floor-to-ceiling windows and a south-facing roof terrace bring excellent natural light and meaningful outdoor space — rare for a flat this size. The open-plan layout maximises the 512 sqft, with quality wooden floors and integrated kitchen fittings throughout.
Practical running costs include a service charge of about £3,300 and ground rent of £300 per year; the property sits on a long lease of 114 years. Heating and electricity run on a community scheme, which simplifies utilities but may limit individual control. Council tax is described as affordable, and mobile signal is excellent; broadband speeds are average.
Location benefits are strong for transport and local amenities: Burgess Park is moments away, and Elephant & Castle, Thameslink and numerous bus routes are within easy reach. Nearby schools include several rated Good or Outstanding. Be aware the immediate area records higher-than-average crime and is relatively deprived, which may concern some buyers and influence resale or rental prospects.
Overall this apartment offers an attractive, low-hassle entry into SE17 ownership: excellent condition, private outdoor space and a lengthy lease. Buyers should factor in the ongoing service charge and ground rent, and weigh neighbourhood considerations against the lifestyle and transport advantages on offer.
