Set on the 13th floor, this split-level two-bedroom flat delivers bright living spaces and a private balcony with far-reaching views. The separate reception room and modern integrated kitchen suit everyday living and make the flat feel larger than its footprint. Good natural light through large windows enhances the sense of space.
The property sits seconds from Oval Underground Station with Stockwell also nearby, offering excellent transport for commuters and easy access to central London. Local amenities including shops, cafes, and supermarkets are within walking distance, and several highly rated primary and secondary schools serve the area.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold (long lease remaining), on a community heating scheme and in a system-built block from the late 1970s with partial insulation. Service charges are above average, and the building has lifts and secure entry. The location is in a very deprived area by local measures, with average crime levels.
This home will suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a well-located London flat with strong transport links and immediate rental or living potential. Buyers wanting a fully low-running-cost home should consider the community heating, service charge level, and the building’s construction when budgeting.
