Summary - Flat 5, 23 Albert Square SW8 1BS
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Recently refurbished two-bed with modern fittings and roof access near Stockwell.
Third-floor Victorian conversion with rooftop views
Set on the third floor of a handsome period conversion, this recently refurbished two-bedroom apartment combines Victorian character with contemporary finishes. The bright open-plan reception and kitchen, granite worktops and integrated appliances create an immediate sense of modern comfort, while new Velux roof windows provide access to the roof and rooftop views over the square.
Practical comforts include underfloor heating in the smart bathroom with Hans Grohe fittings, NIMBUS LED lighting throughout and ample loft space for storage. Albert Square itself is a picturesque garden square, placing this home a short walk from Stockwell and Vauxhall amenities, transport links and a wide range of local shops and cafes.
Buyers should note the lease has 71 years remaining; some mortgage lenders may refuse to lend on properties with this lease length. The apartment is small (582 sq ft) and sits in an area with a higher crime rate; the service charge averages £1,600 per year. Solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, which could affect heating efficiency despite the modern boiler and radiators.
This property suits a buyer wanting a turn-key, characterful central-London flat with strong digital connectivity and rooftop aspects, and who is comfortable addressing medium-term lease considerations and potential insulation upgrades.
