A bright, chain-free one-bedroom flat in Peckham with a private west-facing balcony and clear commuter appeal. The spacious reception opens onto the balcony, while a modern kitchen looks over well-kept communal gardens. Heating, hot water and building insurance are included in the service charge, simplifying running costs.
This 506 sq ft leasehold apartment (103 years remaining) suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking an easy-to-manage central London pied-à-terre. Queens Road Peckham and other nearby stations are within a short walk, with cafés, restaurants and shops on the doorstep.
Be clear about the trade-offs: the area records high crime and very high deprivation indices, and the service charge is above average at £4,300 pa. Council tax band is low and ground rent is nominal, but buyers should budget for the high annual service charge and consider local safety perceptions.
Overall this is a practical, move-in-ready flat offering good transport links, communal green space and storage — a sensible step onto the property ladder or a straightforward rental unit for city commuters.
