A bright, well-proportioned two-bedroom apartment on the first floor of a modern 2013 development, set on a quiet side street off Tower Bridge Road. The open-plan living area is flooded with west-facing light and opens onto a private balcony, creating a practical flow for everyday living and weekend entertaining. At 895 sq ft the apartment feels generous for central SE1 and includes two bathrooms, built-in bedroom wardrobes and a contemporary fitted kitchen with integrated appliances.
Location is a clear strength: Bermondsey Street’s restaurants, galleries and bars are moments away, with London Bridge and Borough stations within easy walking distance for fast links across the capital. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and city commuting. The long lease (985 years) provides ownership security uncommon for inner-city homes.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with a ground rent of £350 and council tax above the local average. Crime levels in the immediate area are higher than average for the city, which may concern some purchasers. Heating is by an air-source heat pump with electric as the main fuel; this is modern and efficient but running costs will vary with usage and tariff.
Overall this apartment will suit professionals or couples seeking a spacious, low-maintenance city base with outside space and strong transport links. It offers immediate move-in condition with potential to personalise finishes, while the long lease makes it a straightforward purchase for buyers seeking central SE1 convenience rather than a renovation project.
