Compact one-bedroom with private south-facing garden and excellent transport links.
South-facing private garden with decking and low maintenance
Quiet, well-updated ground-floor one-bedroom with private south-facing garden, ideal for a first home or pied-à-terre. The current owners have refurbished the flat over eight years, creating a pleasant eat-in kitchen and a large luxury bathroom. At about 410 sq ft this is a compact home with efficient layout and low-maintenance outdoor space directly off the property.
Location is a major draw: New Cross Overground is about 500 metres away, with Deptford Bridge DLR also within easy reach. The neighbourhood is lively and cosmopolitan with many cafés, pubs and restaurants nearby and a wide range of local amenities from shops to leisure options. Several well-rated primary and secondary schools are close by.
Practical facts to note: the flat is leasehold with 113 years remaining, a below-average service charge (£850) and modest ground rent (£250). Heating is electric room heaters and the building has solid brick walls with no added insulation, which could mean higher running costs in winter and scope for improvement. Crime levels are above average in the area, so buyers should consider security measures.
This property suits a buyer seeking a compact, characterful home with outdoor space and excellent transport links. It offers immediate move-in condition with potential to improve energy efficiency over time.
