New Paragon Walk, Elephant & Castle, SE17

Generous and supremely-located turnkey oversized studio apartment of 40 square metres, with a super-sunny orientation and SE-facing balcony, plus brilliant communal exterior spaces.

Find your new pad on the fourth (top) floor of a low-rise and deftly-executed modern development, just 10 minutes from Elephant & Castle tube.

The property further boasts a fab communal roof terrace (with Shard views) and a concierge-service. The property has been owned just once since new.

Take lift or stairs to your floor. On entry, to your right, you have a sizeable built-in double cupboard, which cleverly houses your washer and dryer (these are included in the sale, along with the kitchen's white goods).

To your left of the entrance hall you have your well-appointed bathroom. This has metro-style tiling, a contemporary white suite and neat stainless steel fittings. An over-bath shower gives you both options.

Your huge main room incorporates kitchen, dining, seating and bedroom spaces. And sliding doors plus an additional regular one deliver you to your large balcony/terrace, which faces sunny south-east. You can bask in phenomenal sunshine here. Below you is a peaceful communal garden space, with large planters - allowing you to pleasingly grow your own produce.

The fitted kitchen is a sleek glossy modern affair. Appliances are integrated (and include a dishwasher and an induction hob).

The development further features an incredible, large (and furnished!) roof terrace with 360-vistas. This is a deal-sealer.

What a spot! Those gastronomically-inclined will love fab Bermondsey Street for its many restaurants, pubs, bars and coffee shops. We particularly rate Cafe Murano, The Woolpack, José, Casse-Croûte and Hakata Ramen Bar. White Cube Gallery and other gallery spaces can also be found and enjoyed here.

Borough Market is just a little further - if you'd rather cook up a storm back home, or engage in some people-watching.

Elephant & Castle itself also has a great food and drink offering, with many coffee shops and restaurants for all tastes and budgets, and from grab and go through to sit down (we like Filishack, Beza, Coma Y Beba, El Guambra, and long-established Dragon Castle (perfect for celebration meals). There are fab Asian grocery stores which are not to be missed, as well.

There is an excellent public leisure centre (The Castle Centre) with pool and sauna opposite E&C (Zone 1!) tube. Boutique private gyms/yoga studios are also a big thing round your way.

For parks, your big close ones are Burgess and Southwark (both have great Saturday park runs). Your local smaller ones are Salisbury Row and Nursery Row.
