Set on the second floor of a converted warehouse, this newly renovated one-bedroom apartment combines industrial character with modern comfort. The open-plan living and kitchen benefit from high ceilings, large windows and a small balcony that bring plenty of natural light into the generous living space. The property measures around 508 sq ft and suits a single buyer or couple seeking a low-fuss city home.
Practical features include inside bike storage, double glazing, and recently updated finishes that make the flat turn-key. The bedroom is compact but bright, with built-in storage; the bathroom and kitchen are contemporary and ready to use. Transport links are excellent, with frequent buses and nearby Denmark Hill and Peckham Rye stations offering fast routes into central London.
Be clear about the constraints: the home is leasehold with 105 years remaining, an annual service charge around £2,600 and ground rent approximately £200. Heating is electric via room heaters rather than gas central heating, which may affect bills. The local area is inner-city cosmopolitan but noted as deprived with above-average crime levels — factor this into viewing and location choice.
For a first-time buyer or working professional wanting immediate occupation and low maintenance, this flat offers strong location benefits and characterful living. Its turn-key condition reduces short-term work, while the lease length and central setting retain longer-term flexibility.
