This sixth-floor, two-bedroom apartment on Blackfriars Road offers strong central-London rental and capital-growth potential thanks to its South Bank location and excellent transport links. The open-plan living/kitchen opens onto a large private balcony with extensive skyline views — a rare external space for a city apartment and a clear tenant draw.
Internally the flat is presented in a contemporary, turnkey style with integrated appliances, a central island and bright, minimalist finishes. Two double bedrooms and a generous family bathroom make the layout flexible for sharers, a professional couple or short-term lets. Chain-free sale and a very long lease (990 years) simplify purchase and conveyancing.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold with an above-average service charge of about £8,000pa and an annual ground rent of £475. Heating is provided via a community scheme, and there is no private garden — outdoor amenity is limited to the balcony. Council tax and local crime rates are above average for the area.
Overall this is a compelling central asset for investors or city professionals wanting immediate occupancy or quick let potential. The main compromises are running costs and inner-city location factors, which are balanced by strong location, presentation and long lease security.
