The flat

NEWLY REFURBISHED - NEW BATHROOM, CARPET AND REPAINTED THROUGHOUT. A bright, larger-than-average, one-bed flat on the first floor of a Victorian terraced house very close to Elephant and Castle. At 17' long the bedroom is a great size and bigger than many other similar flats, and the flat has good built-in storage.

• Good sized, open-plan L-shaped kitchen and living area
• Large double bedroom
• Excellent storage
• Separate bathroom
• Bills exclusive
• Council Tax Band C
• Broadband available

The L-shaped living space is well proportioned, with a bright, sunny aspect and two large windows, situated at the front of the house (south-facing). It consists of a kitchen and a good-sized lounge area which can be configured in different ways. The kitchen is equipped with a cooker, hob, extractor fan, fridge and washing machine. The lounge area has a large, full height, built-in storage cupboard, providing ample space to hide bulkier things away.

The flat comes furnished currently with a large double wardrobe, kingside bed with built-in storage, large chest of draws, and a table with four chairs and a sofa. The bathroom has a bathtub with a shower over the bath, along with a sink, mirrored vanity unit, shaver point, toilet and heated towel rail. 

The flat has double glazing throughout, and the house has been insulated for sound between floors. The boiler was replaced in June 2019.
