Set within a well-kept Edwardian block in peaceful Rotherhithe, this one-bedroom apartment offers a bright, comfortable living space and a private balcony overlooking leafy surroundings. The generous reception room, separate kitchen and a large double bedroom make this a roomy city home for a professional single or couple. Off-street parking is a rare local advantage and adds practical value.
Buyers should note the lease sits at 85 years currently — an extension to 999 years is in process but the short remaining term is a material issue that will need confirming and resolving before completion. The property is leasehold with an annual service charge of approximately £2,002.20 and a peppercorn ground rent; these running costs should be checked with your solicitor.
The flat is electrically heated via room heaters rather than a communal gas system; double glazing is present but install date is unknown, and the original solid brick walls likely have limited insulation. These factors affect running costs and possible retrofit work, but the layout and size (about 566 sq ft) give straightforward scope for improvements and modernisation.
Location is a genuine strength: Rotherhithe Pier and ferry services to Canary Wharf are within easy reach, plus frequent buses and nearby green space at Stave Hill Ecological Park. The neighbourhood suits inner-city professionals seeking good transport links, local amenities and a quieter residential feel close to central London.
