The Victory, Elephant & Castle SE17

The Victory new homes in London SE17 are set in a recently converted and refurbished, the one-time Courage Alton brewery pub which closed in 2011.

Priced below £600,000, the apartments are available for sale with the Help-to-Buy scheme. Nine one and two bedroom homes are arranged over this four storey landmark building situated at the junction of Barlow Street and Catesby Street, a 10-mins walk to all the amenities of Elephant and Castle centre.

Externally, The Victory retains most of its Victorian features (built approx. 1852), while internally it has been updated to smart, modern living standards. Generally, the apartments are bright and well-proportioned and  have fully integrated, modern and mostly separate eat-in kitchens featuring high gloss units, quartz worktops and light wood effect flooring. Gas central heating runs through each unit and smart large bathrooms stand out with the quality fixtures and fittings. The reception/ living room areas often offer views of the local park which sits diagonally across The Victory.

The development forms part of a larger regeneration area in Southwark that is subject of an ongoing investment, and is excellently located with access to a walking path connecting Burges Park to the east with Trafalgar Place and the new Elephant Park development to the west.

The Victory is named in commemoration of the Battle of Trafalgar of 21 Oct 1805 and the ship HMS Victory, which was under the command of Admiral Lord Nelson. Lord Nelson was honoured locally in the SE17 with the Lord Nelson pub, the Nelson and the Victory schools and Trafalgar Street.

The Victory’s eye-catching exterior is still intact although the carved wooden panels, decorative glasswork and oversized hanging lamps that used to cover the ground floor external walls have all disappeared over the time.

Pubs are the fastest-selling property conversions in Britain currently; redundant pubs as a result of the decline of the local drinking culture, or popular establishments occupying prime city locations with great transport links and back parking space that attract property investors turning them into luxury flats.
