This bright two-bedroom apartment on the second floor of a sought-after 1930s development offers practical, well-proportioned living for a first-time buyer or couple. The reception room’s bay window fills the space with light and opens onto a private south-west facing balcony — a rare find for city flats. The layout includes a modern kitchen and a large contemporary bathroom, with a roomy hallway that offers flexible storage or study options.
Residents benefit from immaculately maintained communal gardens and an on-site maintenance team who manage the estate daily, easing upkeep. Transport links are a major plus: Denmark Hill station is minutes away with Overground and BR services, and buses serve central London and Canary Wharf. Local amenities, cafes and parks — notably Ruskin Park, Herne Hill and East Dulwich — are within easy walking distance.
Be clear about the practical points: the flat is leasehold and heated via a community mains-gas scheme, and the building’s cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation — worth checking for long-term energy costs. Crime in the immediate area is above average, and council tax banding is not provided here. The apartment is approximately 660 sq ft, an average-sized unit offering comfortable accommodation but limited for those needing extensive storage or larger living areas.
Overall, this well-presented property suits buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in home near strong transport links and green space, or investors wanting a lettable two-bedroom in a desirable SE5 location. Inspect to confirm lease details, running costs and any communal service charges before deciding.
