Flat Flat 101, Hester House 72-78, Conington Road, London, SE13 7FL

Some apartments need imagination. This one doesn’t.

This home has already had the time, money and effort invested into it, leaving the next owner with a home that feels fresh, finished and ready to enjoy from the moment they collect the keys.

The refurbishment has been carried out throughout the apartment, with new flooring, full redecoration, repainted woodwork, a newly installed hiu and a refreshed bathroom finish, while the private balcony has also been restored and brought back to life.

The result is a home that feels considerably sharper than its previous incarnation and gives buyers the rare luxury of not having a list of jobs waiting for them after completion.

The main living space is bright and well proportioned, with floor-to-ceiling glazing helping to draw in plenty of natural light.

The open-plan kitchen sits neatly alongside the reception area, creating a practical space for day-to-day living as well as entertaining, while the balcony provides a welcome extension of the living space.

The bedroom is a generous double with fitted storage, and the bathroom has been refreshed in keeping with the rest of the apartment.

Hester House also offers the convenience of concierge service, lift access and a residents’ gym while Elverson Road DLR is moments away.

Lewisham Station is also within easy walking distance, giving access into London Bridge, Cannon Street, Charing Cross and Victoria.

Beyond the transport links, the location puts Lewisham, Greenwich and Blackheath all within easy reach, together with the everyday amenities, cafés and shops that make this part of SE13 such a practical place to live.

For a first-time buyer, investor or anyone wanting a London base without taking on somebody else’s unfinished project, this is a strong proposition. The work has already been done.

Now it just needs its next owner
