A ground-floor Victorian conversion offering 509 sq ft of well-proportioned living with private garden access — ideal for a first-time buyer wanting a London base. The apartment is presented in good condition with original bay-window character in the bedroom and straightforward layout that works well for singles or couples.
Transport is a major selling point: Kennington and Lambeth North stations are within easy walking distance, delivering rapid connections to the City and West End. The flat benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity, making it practical for everyday city life and remote working.
Practical considerations are clear and honest. The unit sits on a Share of Freehold with 98 years remaining on the lease; some lenders take a more cautious view below 100 years. Annual service charge is around £1,200 and the plan is a long, linear layout that limits open-plan reconfiguration without structural work. The property sits in an area with higher local deprivation scores, although local schools, green spaces and amenities are nearby.
Overall this is a compact, characterful city flat that offers private outdoor space and strong transport links. It will suit buyers seeking a manageable London home or buy-to-let investors looking for straightforward occupation and rental appeal, provided they’re comfortable with the lease length and layout constraints.
