A newly refurbished one-bedroom first-floor flat occupying part of a Victorian terrace, offered with a long lease and private rear garden. The reception room feels generous thanks to high ceilings and period proportions; the property has been updated throughout with a fitted kitchen and shower room. Its size (approximately 1,028 sq ft total building footprint) and chain-free sale make it suitable for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let purchaser seeking immediate move-in condition.
Practical details work in the property’s favour: about 147 years remain on the lease, there is no service charge or ground rent, council tax is Band B, and double glazing is installed. The flat sits within walking distance of Silver Street station and close to Meridian Water regeneration, giving decent transport links and local amenities.
Buyers should note several material issues. The wider area records high crime levels and significant deprivation, which will affect living experience and resale values. Flood risk is rated medium. Heating is by electric storage heaters (main fuel: electricity), which can be costly compared with gas; some promotional material also referenced gas central heating, so heating type should be confirmed. The building is of solid brick construction (pre-1900) and likely lacks cavity wall insulation.
This is a straightforward purchase for someone prioritising a long lease, immediate occupation and transport links over a quiet or low-risk location. It offers a strong entry point to the N18 market but requires buyers to accept location-related safety and environmental considerations.
