Set high on the 38th floor, this modern one-bedroom apartment offers bright, open-plan living and far-reaching city views. The large reception and integrated kitchen create a spacious central living area, with a double bedroom and sleek bathroom completing the layout. At about 474 sq ft, the home suits a single buyer or couple seeking a low-maintenance urban base.
Part of a contemporary development completed since 2007, the block benefits from concierge and double glazing. Practical features include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and an electric heating system with an air-source heat pump — efficient for an all-electric property. The apartment has a long lease (109 years) and is typical of inner-city, mid-terrace, system-built construction.
Location is a major draw: Elephant and Castle transport links and a wide range of shops, leisure and restaurants are within easy reach, and Elephant Park provides green space nearby. Local primary and secondary schools include several rated Good or Outstanding.
Considerations: the property is in a deprived area with above-average recorded crime, which may affect long-term desirability and resale. It is leasehold with a ground rent of £300 and ongoing service charges likely — factor these into running costs. The flat is average in size and may suit buyers prioritising location and convenience over large living space.
