Summary - Flat 9 Lamb House, Elmington Estate SE5 7JF
3 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright city flat with balcony and long lease near excellent transport and schools.
Three double bedrooms and large reception room
A bright three-bedroom flat arranged around a large reception and open-plan kitchen — an appealing layout for first-time buyers seeking space to live and work. The property includes three double bedrooms, a bathroom plus separate WC, and a private balcony that brings outdoor space to city living. At approximately 800 sq ft, the accommodation feels generous for a flat in Camberwell.
Practical details support straightforward ownership: a long lease of 117 years, low ground rent (£10), mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and double glazing (install date unknown). The block dates from the 1930–49 period and is system-built with internal insulation, which may affect how future works are carried out.
Location is one of the flat's strongest assets — central Camberwell amenities, excellent mobile and fast broadband, and a range of well-rated primary and secondary schools nearby, including a highly rated secondary. Transport links and local shops, cafés and restaurants are within easy reach, adding everyday convenience.
Be realistic about the neighbourhood context: the area is classed as very deprived with very high recorded crime, which will influence both lifestyle and future resale or lettability. The flat is in generally good decorative order from the images but offers scope for updating or cosmetic refurbishment to increase value. Buyers who prioritise space, transport and long lease security will find strong reasons to view; those sensitive to local social indicators should consider these factors carefully.
