A bright, top-floor one-bedroom flat with clear City views, positioned above Tabard Gardens and within easy walking distance of London Bridge and Borough stations. The open-plan reception with an island hob and contemporary kitchen makes the apartment feel larger than its footprint and is ready to move into.
Quality finishes include wooden floors, triple glazing and a modern shower room, so there's little immediate work required. The property sits in a red‑brick 1930s building that retains character while offering a contemporary interior — ideal for a first-time buyer or a central-London pied-à-terre.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat (approx. 105 years remaining) with an average service charge of £1,200 and a small ground rent. The building has solid brick walls (likely without cavity insulation) and was constructed in the 1930s–1940s, which could mean higher heating costs than newer builds. Local recorded crime levels are very high — important for buyers prioritising security and tranquillity.
Overall this is a well-presented, compact city home with strong transport links and rental potential, suited to someone seeking a ready-to-live-in central London base or an investment with straightforward letting appeal.
