Set across two levels, this 2-bedroom duplex offers 810 sq ft of well-zoned living with a rare 999-year lease. Floor-to-ceiling south-facing windows on the upper level provide generous daylight to the open reception and access to a private balcony — a strong draw for commuters and first-time buyers seeking bright city living. The semi open-plan kitchen has integrated appliances and a breakfast bar that suit modern, low-maintenance lifestyles.
Practical details support long-term ownership: mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband availability. Transport is a clear asset — London Bridge, Borough and Elephant & Castle stations are all within walking distance, putting central London within easy reach. Local amenities are plentiful, from Bermondsey Street eateries to Borough Market and Tanner Street Park.
Buyers should note material downsides plainly. The area records a higher crime rate and is classified as deprived, which may affect perceptions and resale for some purchasers. Service charges include a relatively high ground rent (£750) and council tax is above average; these running costs are important to factor into monthly budgets. Built in the early 1990s, the block appears modern but double-glazing install dates are unknown and the property may need cosmetic updating to personal taste.
Overall, this duplex suits first-time buyers or professionals looking for roomy, well-located accommodation with long lease security and strong transport links, provided they accept the higher local running costs and urban setting.
