Summary - RIDDELL COURT, 20 FLAT 21 ALBANY ROAD LONDON SE5 0DS
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Light-filled two-bedroom flat overlooking Burgess Park — chain free with parking..
Allocated off-street parking space included
Set on the second floor of a purpose-built block overlooking Burgess Park, this compact two-bedroom flat offers light-filled living and practical urban convenience. The reception room benefits from full-height French doors onto a Juliet balcony, while a separate kitchen and two modest bedrooms create an efficient layout for a couple or first-time buyers.
The flat is chain free and includes an allocated off-street parking space — a notable bonus for SE5. The building is modern (early 1990s) with double glazing and an estimated 598 sq ft internal area. Local amenities, cafés and transport links are within easy reach, and several highly rated schools are nearby, making the location practical for younger families.
Buyers should note material running costs and limitations: the service charge is £2,629 pa, ground rent is £271 pa, and the lease has 97 years remaining. Heating is electric with room heaters rather than central gas, and advertised broadband speeds in the area are very slow. The broader area records higher crime statistics and is classed as deprived, which buyers should factor into long-term plans.
Overall this is a well-presented, modestly sized urban flat that suits first-time buyers or investors looking for a park-facing property with parking. It offers comfortable immediate occupation but also clear maintenance and running-costs considerations that affect affordability and resale potential.
