Light-filled and spacious, this split-level three-bedroom apartment offers 962 sq ft of adaptable living across the fourth and fifth floors. The open-plan kitchen and living area opens to a private balcony, creating a bright social heart ideal for first-time buyers or young families. Generous bedroom sizes on the upper floor give comfortable sleeping space and practical layout flexibility.
The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and benefits from double glazing and a community heating scheme. The property is offered chain free and sits close to Denmark Hill and Burgess Park, with Oval and Kennington stations within easy reach — a sensible commuter pick for central London access.
Practical considerations include an EPC rating of D and a kitchen described as functional but slightly dated; a modest refurbishment would raise comfort and value. The lease has around 116 years remaining and ground rent is currently £10 per year; service charge details are to be confirmed. Council tax band B and very low local crime are additional positives.
This is a straightforward, roomy apartment that suits buyers wanting move-in-ready space with short-term improvement potential. It combines central connectivity, outside space via the balcony, and long lease security — a solid purchase for those starting out in London or investors seeking reliable rental appeal.
