Summary - SHIPLEY HOUSE FLAT 22 ALBION AVENUE LONDON SW8 2AH
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Light-filled, renovated flat with communal gardens and excellent transport links.
Recently modernised kitchen and bathroom, move-in ready
Set within a mid-century brick block on Albion Avenue, this recently modernised two-bedroom apartment offers move-in ready, city living with the benefit of communal gardens. The reception room and separate contemporary kitchen create practical living space for professionals or a couple, while natural light reaches the courtyard-facing elevations. At about 626 sq ft, the layout feels comfortable rather than spacious.
Practical details are straightforward: the flat is leasehold with 89 years remaining, an average service charge of around £1,500 per year and a nominal ground rent of £10. Heating is gas-fired via a boiler and radiators; the building dates from the 1950s–60s and has solid brick walls (insulation not confirmed). Crime levels are average for the area and there is no identified flood risk.
Transport links are a clear selling point — roughly a ten-minute walk to Stockwell Underground and easy bus routes to Vauxhall and central stations — making the flat appealing to commuters working across Central and South West London. The communal courtyard and landscaped green provide a rare slice of calm in an inner-city setting.
This apartment will suit first-time buyers seeking a ready-to-live-in London starter home or investors targeting steady rental demand. Buyers should factor in the remaining lease length and ongoing service charges when assessing long-term value; there is scope to add value through cosmetic upgrades, though major structural or insulation works are not evident from available information.
