Bright open-plan flat with large private balcony and long lease.
Third-floor two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment with lift access
A bright two-bedroom apartment set on the third floor of a modern development, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking low-maintenance city living. The open-plan living and kitchen area flows onto a large private balcony, creating useful entertaining space and generous natural light. The property includes two double bedrooms, two bathrooms, lift access and secure entry. The long lease (113 years) and EPC B are practical ownership advantages.
The development sits moments from Burgess Park and Walworth Road’s shops and services, with Elephant & Castle transport links close by for central London commutes. The interior is presented in a contemporary, neutral style and benefits from ample internal storage and double glazing. The vendor is offering 18 months free service charge, reducing initial running costs for a new owner.
Buyers should note the above-average annual service charge (£5,000) and an average ground rent (£300pa). The local area records higher crime and is classified as deprived — amenity-rich but inner-city in character — which may be relevant to families or those prioritising quieter neighbourhoods. Broadband speeds are average, while mobile signal is excellent.
Overall this is a practical city pad with clear commuter appeal and potential for rental income or future value uplift through continued area regeneration. It suits buyers wanting ready-to-move-in accommodation with communal facilities and outside space, provided they accept the service charge level and the urban setting.
