Ground-floor period conversion with private outdoor space near transport links.
Two double bedrooms, bay-windowed master
A light-filled two-bedroom ground-floor period conversion with a private south-facing garden, set on a quiet residential street between Sydenham and Forest Hill stations. The apartment keeps attractive period details and a bay-windowed master bedroom, while offering modern comforts including double glazing, an integrated kitchen and a contemporary bathroom.
The layout works well for first-time buyers or professional couples seeking easy access to central London (excellent transport links) and a manageable outdoor space. The raised deck steps down to a private garden, ideal for weekend entertaining or safe space for plants and small children.
Practical information is straightforward: the flat is leasehold with 182 years remaining, a modest service charge of £725.64 per year (approx. £60.47 pcm), and a £10 ground rent. The building is solid-brick construction typical of its era and likely has limited cavity insulation, which may mean higher heating demand until upgraded. Local crime rates are above average — buyers should factor this into security and insurance considerations.
Overall this is a well-presented period conversion offering a strong blend of character and contemporary fittings in a convenient location. It suits those prioritising transport links, outdoor space and period charm, while remaining realistic about modest running costs and potential retrofit improvements for energy performance.
