Compact period flat moments from the Thames and Victoria transport links.
Third-floor Edwardian flat with high ceilings and large windows
This compact one-bedroom apartment occupies the third floor of an Edwardian purpose-built block on Vauxhall Bridge Road, a short walk from the River Thames and Victoria’s transport and shopping hubs. High ceilings and large windows create a bright feel despite the modest 350 sq ft footprint, and the reception room retains original period character alongside contemporary finishes.
The flat has a well-equipped modern kitchen, a double bedroom with fitted storage, and a gas-fired boiler with radiator heating. Secondary glazing helps reduce street noise in this central location. The long lease (144 years remaining) provides ownership security for buyers seeking city-centre living or a rental investment.
Notable practical considerations: the apartment is small and will suit buyers who prioritise location over space. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, and the block’s solid brick construction likely lacks wall insulation, which may affect running costs. The immediate neighbourhood records very high crime levels, so prospective buyers should consider security and insurance implications.
Overall, this flat offers a rare central Westminster address, period features and ready-to-live-in condition, making it suitable for a first-time buyer or investor wanting a well-located city pied-à-terre with scope for minor upgrades.
