Set within an attractive, period mansion block, moments from Tower Bridge Road and trendy Bermondsey Street, is this immaculate, one bedroom, first floor apartment. Having been lovingly maintained by the current owners, this naturally bright property oozes character and charm.

On entering you immediately step into the welcoming hallway that provides access to all principle rooms. The stunning reception room with a gorgeous Victorian style fireplace, really is the heart of the property, with plenty of space for a dining area, making it the perfect place to relax or entertain in. The kitchen has been upgraded recently, and is fitted with stylish Shaker style units, complimented by pale marble effect work surfaces. The bedroom is calm and tranquil, located to rear of the apartment. The bathroom is modern and fully tiled and very much in keeping with the rest of the property. Further features include laminate wood flooring throughout, double glazing, high ceilings, secure entry and access to a substantial communal roof terrace that offers sensational skyline views.

Kingsley Flats itself is managed by Peabody Trust and having undergone an extensive works program in recent years is offered in immaculate condition, perfectly located to enjoy the delights of SE1. The local area has a plethora of transport options, and is in a fantastic location for bus routes with direct buses to the City, Waterloo, Westminster, the West End and King’s Cross. If the tube is more of a preference, London Bridge, Borough, and the Elephant & Castle are all within a short walking distance. Other benefits include the ever popular Bermondsey Street with its bars, restaurants, boutiques and galleries and the coffee shops and cafes of lower Tower Bridge Road. Bermondsey Square houses an excellent art house cinema, while the foods markets of Maltby Street, Spa Terminus and Borough are nearby.
