1 bed flat for sale

Runacres Close, Kennington SE17

A generous, bright and chain free one bedroom ex-la maisonette (of 495 square feet) with its own front door, and double-glazing and neutral decor throughout.

Find it in a quiet and tucked away yet seriously well-connected location: Kennington tube (Northern line) is a seven minute walk, and Elephant & Castle tube (Bakerloo and Northern) is a 12 minute one. Or jump on any number of central-bound buses on nearby Walworth Road.

In your front door and there is a big store cupboard to your immediate right. Fab for coats, shoes, suitcases etc.

Next on the right is your large double bedroom, of over 13 feet by over 11 feet. Your window faces sunny south-east. Next door is the modern windowed bathroom, with simple white suite and over-bath shower.

Next comes your kitchen; galley-style with modern white wall and base units.

The flat’s best bit finalises the tour: A sizeable reception room with a pale carpet and two windows. There is lots of space to zone seating, dining, and work/hobby areas.

Your local parks include Pasley, Kennington and Burgess. The latter has a popular park run on Saturdays at 9am.

Useful supermarkets and shops are easily lamded upon - on Walworth Road. You are slso near East Street Market for your fruit and veg etc.

It is tempting to zip straight into town in this location, but there are loads of good indie spots locally as well - just some examples are White Bear Theatre, The Old Red Lion pub, Muma Thai, Cheli, Dragon Castle and Diogenes The Dog.

The Elephant & Castle area has enjoyed recent and substantial regeneration works, and the leisure centre/gym here is really strong. There are lots of private and boutique gyms and yoga/pilates studios, too.
