Situated on the third floor of a secure gated development, this two-bedroom apartment offers a practical layout and city living conveniences. The living room opens to an east-facing Juliette balcony overlooking well-kept communal gardens, and the semi-separate fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances.

The master bedroom benefits from a tidy tiled en-suite; a second double bedroom and a tiled family bathroom complete the sleeping accommodation. Features include double glazing installed after 2002, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and secure allocated parking within the development. Bentham House is within a short walk of Borough, Elephant & Castle and London Bridge stations, making daily commutes straightforward.
Be aware of the material running costs and tenure: the flat is leasehold with around 100 years remaining, an annual service charge of approximately £2,600 and a very high ground rent of about £2,000. Council tax is above average. The surrounding area is a cosmopolitan, multicultural student neighbourhood — lively and well-served but occasionally noisy and busy.
Overall this apartment suits first-time buyers seeking a well-located, ready-to-live-in home or landlords targeting excellent rental demand near major transport hubs. The property is in good decorative order, with scope for cosmetic updates to personalise interiors, while the communal gardens and secure parking add practical value.
