Summary - FLAT 16, 21A, ROTHSAY STREET, LONDON SE1 4BF
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact duplex apartment with concierge and strong transport links.
Bright open-plan kitchen and reception with balcony access
This modern one-bedroom duplex in SE1 offers compact city living with a private balcony and concierge service. At about 619 sq ft across two levels, the layout provides a bright open-plan reception and kitchen with integrated appliances, a long double bedroom and a contemporary bathroom — well suited to a single occupant or couple.
The property is offered as shared ownership (55% share at £236,500) or can be bought outright. It sits on a long lease (around 108–109 years remaining) and is chain free, providing straightforward purchase logistics. Excellent transport links nearby (Bermondsey, London Bridge, Borough) and a wide range of local amenities add practical value.
Buyers should note the annualised service charge and rent payable under shared ownership (service charge approx. £3,230.52 yearly; rent shown in marketing example). The building is in a lively, inner-city, student-dominated neighbourhood with a higher local crime rate; some buyers may experience street noise and busy surroundings. There is no private garden and outdoor space is limited to the balcony.
Overall, this is a convenient, contemporary inner-London flat that works well for first-time buyers seeking affordability through shared ownership or investors wanting a compact, well-located apartment. Be aware of running costs, tenancy eligibility requirements for shared ownership, and the busy urban setting when assessing suitability.
