Set across two floors, this stylish one-bedroom duplex offers bright, modern living ideal for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance central London base. The ground floor opens to an open-plan kitchen and reception with laminate floors and patio access to a small front garden. A convenient guest washroom downstairs and plentiful hallway storage add everyday practicality.
Upstairs the generous double bedroom benefits from a sleek en-suite bathroom and good built-in storage. At about 624 sq ft the layout feels spacious for a one-bed, and the outright chain-free sale with a 992-year lease gives long-term security.
Practical considerations: the property runs on electric heating with an air-source heat pump and underfloor heating, and the annual service charge is £2,737.20. The surrounding area is undergoing major regeneration (Biscuit Factory, Canada Water) and offers excellent transport links, markets and parks, but local crime levels are above average and the wider area shows high deprivation — factors to weigh for buyers prioritising neighbourhood calm.
Overall this is a contemporary, well-presented maisonette with outdoor space and two bathrooms, offering easy access to Bermondsey amenities and transport. Buyers should check service charge details and local safety data, and consider the primarily electric heating system when assessing running costs.
