Contemporary two-bed with balcony, concierge and gated parking near Elephant & Castle.
Third-floor two-bedroom apartment with balcony and city views
Bright, modern two-bedroom apartment on the third floor with a large open-plan living area and a balcony overlooking central London. The layout makes efficient use of 690 sq ft, with wooden floors, a contemporary kitchen and a fully tiled bathroom, suited to early buyers wanting move-in ready accommodation.
Practical advantages include 24-hour concierge, gated car park (sold on a separate lease), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The property is a short walk from Elephant & Castle station (Bakerloo and Northern lines) and about 15 minutes on foot from Southbank amenities, making daily commuting and leisure straightforward.
Notable costs and limits are clear: this is a leasehold flat with approximately 106 years remaining, an annual service charge around £4,000 and ground rent of £250. Heating is electric room heaters rather than central gas, and there is a single bathroom for two double bedrooms. Crime levels in the area are above average, reflecting the inner-city location.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer seeking a contemporary, low-maintenance London home or an investor targeting rental demand near universities and transport hubs. The property is largely turnkey but buyers should factor ongoing service charges, parking treated as a separate lease, and the modest limitations of electric heating into their running-cost calculations.
