Summary - 87 ALBERTA STREET LONDON SE17 3RU
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Two-bedroom period apartment with modern kitchen and excellent transport links.
Private entrance and direct access to a rear garden
This bright two-bedroom ground-floor flat combines Victorian character with a practical, modern layout. High ceilings, a bay-front reception and original features create a welcoming living space, while the eat-in kitchen opens directly onto a private rear garden — a rare find at this price in central Kennington.
The home is well placed for transport: Kennington Underground station (Northern Line) is under 150 metres away and Elephant & Castle rail and tube connections are nearby. The 104-year lease, low ground rent and a modest service charge make this a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking immediate letting potential.
The property is presented liveable but not new: room sizes are average for an inner-London terrace conversion and the building dates from the early 20th century. There is scope to refresh finishes and personalise the flat, and the linear layout provides efficient separation between living and sleeping areas.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the property is leasehold with 104 years remaining, it sits in an area with above-average crime statistics and higher local deprivation, and the building’s solid brick walls likely lack modern insulation. These factors affect running costs and future renovation considerations, but the excellent transport links and private garden keep long-term appeal.
