Set within an atmospheric Victorian conversion, this ground-floor one-bedroom flat pairs generous period features with clear scope to add value. The reception room impresses with high ceilings and original sash windows that flood the space with light; the building offers a porter and communal roof terrace. Located moments from Oval Underground and Kennington Park, everyday travel and green space are both exceptionally convenient.
The layout includes a double bedroom with built-in storage and an integrated kitchen; the apartment is small (approx. 393 sq ft) and will benefit from updating throughout. Heating is by electric room heaters and the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so energy efficiency is limited in its current state. The property is leasehold with 94 years remaining and a modest ground rent of £150.
For a first-time buyer this is a manageable entry into a sought-after postcode with immediate rental or resale potential after refurbishment. For buyers prepared to modernise, there’s realistic scope to improve finishes, heating and insulation to reduce running costs and increase resale value. The apartment’s character features and central location are the main draw, balanced by the practical work needed to bring it up to modern standards.
