This newly renovated one‑bedroom garden flat sits on De Laune Street, a peaceful Victorian terrace moments from Kennington Tube (Northern Line). Large sash windows and fitted shutters bring in abundant light to a reception room with high ceilings and space for dining. The modern fitted kitchen and stylish bathroom are ready to use, so the home is move‑in ready for a first purchase or buy‑to‑let start.
Outside, a maintenance‑free private rear garden offers rare outdoor space for central‑London living. The flat’s 536 sq ft layout feels practical and linear, with gas boiler central heating and decent thermal performance from the original walls. Leasehold terms are strong, with 117 years remaining and no annual ground rent reported.
Practical costs are manageable: an annual service charge of about £1,308 and a low council tax band (B). The local area gives easy access to Kennington Park, shops, pubs and transport links toward Oval and Elephant & Castle, attractive for commuting and social life.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the wider neighbourhood scores as deprived and local crime levels are above average, which may concern some purchasers. As a leasehold flat in a Victorian mid‑terrace, periodic maintenance and communal building responsibilities apply. Information should be independently checked before proceeding.
