This well-presented one-bedroom apartment offers 548 sq ft of light-filled living in a contemporary building close to Queens Road Peckham station. The open-plan lounge/kitchen, private balcony and built-in wardrobes create a practical, comfortable home for a first-time buyer or commuter seeking easy access to central London.
Practicalities are clear: the property is leasehold with 240 years remaining, a service charge around £2,200 and a small ground rent of £150. Heating is provided via a community scheme, and the development includes communal gardens, lift access and free off-street parking — useful conveniences for everyday life.
Location is a strong selling point for transport and local amenities. Fast rail and overground links give quick access to London Bridge and Canada Water; Queens Road Peckham offers cafés, restaurants and independent shops. Broadband and mobile signals are excellent, supporting remote working and streaming.
Buyers should be aware of material local factors. The area is classified as very deprived with a high local crime rate; that may affect resale or rental desirability for some purchasers. Service charges are significant and the property sits within an established inner-city neighbourhood, so those prioritising rural calm or low communal costs should consider alternatives.
