Long lease—158 years remaining
Service charge approximately £1,000 per year; ground rent nil

This ground-floor studio in Dalton House maximises light and layout within a compact 325 sq ft footprint. A separate sleeping area and an independent kitchen give more privacy and practicality than a typical open-plan studio, making it a sensible first home or rental unit in SE14.
Practical perks include off-street residents' parking — a rare convenience in London — and a long lease with 158 years remaining. The interior has contemporary finishes and double glazing installed post-2002, so immediate cosmetic work should be minimal for many buyers.
Notable drawbacks are the property's small overall size and reliance on electric room heaters rather than a central gas system, which can mean higher running costs. The local area scores as deprived with above-average crime levels; buyers should factor neighbourhood context into their decision. Service charge is listed at around £1,000 per year, and ground rent is nil.
Overall, this studio suits a first-time buyer or investor wanting a well-laid-out, low-maintenance London base with parking and a long lease. It offers sensible potential for rental or starter-home use, provided you accept the compact scale and electric heating arrangement.
