Summary - 77 ST JOHNS ESTATE LONDON SE1 2XE
4 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free four-bedroom home near Tower Bridge, ready to personalise.
Top two-level, split-level layout with four bedrooms
Set across the top two levels of a well-kept ex-local authority block on St John’s Estate, this split-level four-bedroom apartment makes efficient use of its 809 sq ft footprint. The principal draw is practical space for families or sharers: a bright reception room, separate fitted kitchen, four bedrooms and a main bathroom plus an extra WC. High ceilings and good natural light on the upper floors give a spacious feel and far-reaching urban views.
Practical advantages include a long lease of around 160 years, chain-free sale, secure entry and communal outdoor space. Connectivity is strong with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and the location puts supermarkets, cafés, schools and transport links within easy reach of central London amenities.
The building dates from the 1950s–1960s and has solid brick walls (no known insulation), double glazing of unknown age and gas-fired central heating via boiler and radiators. Buyers should factor typical maintenance and potential upgrade works into their plans—improvements such as thermal insulation, modernisation of finishes and potentially more bathroom facilities would add value and comfort.
The area suits families and investors seeking central SE1 living with rental potential, but note the neighbourhood records above-average crime statistics; prospective purchasers should consider security measures and local due diligence. Flood risk is very low and the long lease provides clarity for both homeowner and buy-to-let purchasers.
