Large four-bedroom split-level apartment with period features in Zone 2 Brockley, share of freehold..
Large 1,330 sq ft split-level apartment across two floors
Set across the second and third floors of a handsome Victorian terrace, this 1,330 sq ft split-level apartment offers generous proportions and period character. High ceilings, bay windows and working fireplaces give the main living room and principal bedroom strong visual appeal and a sense of space rarely found in modern builds. The property is share of freehold with no ground rent and reasonable service charges, making long-term ownership straightforward.
The current layout provides four double bedrooms and a single family bathroom, with the kitchen and bathroom located on the middle floor. That arrangement suits a family who values separate living and sleeping zones, or professionals seeking large rooms for home working. Brockley and St John’s stations lie nearby (Zone 2), giving quick Overground connections for commuters.
There are some practical matters to note: the building dates from 1900–1929 and has solid brick walls without added insulation, which may affect heating efficiency. The apartment has double glazing (installed post-2002) and mains gas central heating, but further cavity or internal insulation and modernisation could improve running costs. With just one bathroom for four bedrooms, some buyers may wish to reconfigure or add facilities.
Located in the Brockley Conservation Area, the immediate neighbourhood is inner-city cosmopolitan with good schools, local shops, markets and cycle-friendly amenities. The area scores as more deprived overall, which buyers should weigh alongside the property’s size, share-of-freehold tenure and strong transport links when considering long-term value or rental potential.
