High ceilings, tall sash windows and a contemporary kitchen/dining area create an airy, versatile home that suits first-time buyers seeking room to grow or professionals working nearby.
Practical features include two bathrooms, allocated off-street parking and a communal garden for outdoor space. The long lease (c.980 years) and off-street parking are strong ownership advantages in this part of SE5. Transport links and local amenities in Camberwell and Peckham are close by, making commuting and everyday shopping straightforward.
Buyers should note the EPC rating of D and electric underfloor heating as the main heating source; energy performance and running costs may be higher than gas-heated alternatives. The property is leasehold with an average ground rent of £350 and sits in an area with higher recorded crime rates, factors to weigh alongside the home’s size and location benefits.
Overall, this flat combines characterful period features and modern internal finishes with practical perks like parking and a long lease. It will suit anyone wanting generous two-bedroom accommodation close to central amenities, but buyers looking for the most energy-efficient heating or a lower-crime neighbourhood should factor that into their decision.
