Summary - 1 FLAT 12 BOWLING GREEN PLACE LONDON SE1 1YL
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Third-floor modern flat with parking and communal garden ideal for city living.
Two double bedrooms and two modern bathrooms, circa 741 sq ft
Bright, well-proportioned and offered chain free, this two-bedroom apartment sits on the third floor of a purpose-built block in the heart of SE1. The open-plan living room and kitchen are west-facing and flood the space with afternoon light, while two double bedrooms and two bathrooms make the layout practical for sharers or a small family. The property extends to approximately 68.9 sq m (741 sq ft) and benefits from lift access, secure allocated parking and peaceful communal gardens.
Practical ownership features include a share of freehold with an exceptionally long lease (991 years remaining) and Hyperoptic broadband already installed. The building was constructed around the turn of the century and has double glazing; the communal service charge is listed at about £2,065 (average). The flat is chain free, so completion can be straightforward for a ready buyer.
Buyers should be aware of a few material considerations. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a gas-fired central system, which can affect running costs and resale preferences. Council Tax sits at Band E (above average) and the area records a very high crime level on local statistics, which some buyers may find relevant. The apartment faces an urban street outlook rather than extensive views, and while well maintained, it offers scope for cosmetic updating to reflect personal taste.
Overall, this home will suit first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-hassle central-London base with secure parking and good transport, broadband and local amenities on the doorstep. Check service charge and running-cost details and consider heating preferences before committing.
