This bright two-bedroom, two-bath apartment sits on the first floor of a modern 2012+ development, offering an open-plan living/kitchen and a private balcony. The master bedroom includes an ensuite; the second double and main bathroom make the layout practical for sharers or a small family. At 682 sq ft the home is compact but well laid-out, with wood floors and integrated kitchen appliances creating a ready-to-move-in feel.
Transport is a major strength: Elephant & Castle (Northern, Bakerloo, Thameslink) is within easy reach, with good bus links to the City and nearby Oval and Kennington stations. Burgess Park and local amenities are close by, and several highly rated primary and secondary schools sit within walking distance, making the location useful for first-time buyers planning short commutes and local family life.
Buyers should note clear costs and local challenges. The property is leasehold with 114 years remaining, an above-average service charge of £4,224pa and annual ground rent of £300. The immediate area scores as deprived with relatively high local crime statistics; purchasers should factor this into budgeting and personal security choices. Broadband speeds are average while mobile signal is excellent.
Overall this is a modern, low-risk urban apartment that suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a well-connected two-bed with two bathrooms. It delivers convenience, a practical layout and outside space, but carries significant service charges and sits in a high-crime, deprived ward — worth considering for value and commuting convenience, rather than rural tranquillity.
