Set within the secure Trinity Gardens development, this two-bedroom apartment offers bright, modern living across roughly 635 sq ft. The open-plan living and dining area flows into a contemporary fitted kitchen with integrated appliances — ideal for first-time buyers wanting a ready-to-move-in home without immediate works.
Both bedrooms are generous doubles and the stylish bathroom is finished to a modern standard. Practical details that matter are favourable: a long lease of 119 years (from 2019) and double glazing installed after 2002. The development is well maintained and benefits from a managed communal environment.
Be clear about the trade-offs: heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, which may affect running costs. Annual charges are notable — an average service charge of £2,000 and ground rent around £500 — and the local crime level is recorded as very high. Despite these issues, the location is a major asset, minutes from Brixton, Clapham and Stockwell with excellent Tube and Overground links to central London, nearby universities and creative employment hubs.
