466 sq ft; separate kitchen and living room layout
Double glazing and mains gas boiler with radiators
Leasehold: 83 years remaining — budget for mortgage limits
Service charge approx £1,656 per year; ground rent £10
Block built 1967–75; walls likely uninsulated — retrofit potential
Local area: strong transport and amenities but high crime levels
Area deprivation high; factor in resale/rental and safety considerations
Set within the popular Columbia Road area, this ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers a compact, well-lit home with direct access to communal gardens. At 466 sq ft the layout separates living and kitchen spaces, making it comfortable for singles or couples who value clear room division and natural light.
The apartment benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and solid wood-style flooring in the living area. Residents can enjoy the leafy communal gardens and immediate proximity to Columbia Road Flower Market, independent cafés, shops and strong transport links — appealing for first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors alike.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with 83 years remaining, an average service charge of £1,656 and a small ground rent. The block was constructed in the late 1960s–1970s and walls are likely uninsulated, so there is potential for energy-efficiency improvements. Crime levels in the local area are above average and the wider neighbourhood faces high deprivation, factors to weigh for residents and investors.
Overall this is a bright, well-positioned one-bedroom flat offering immediate move-in potential and scope for modest upgrading to improve comfort and value.
