Summary - SUMMERSELL HOUSE FLAT 17 BENTONS RISE LONDON SE27 9TY
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Newly renovated upper-floor flat with private balcony and ready-to-move-in finish.
Two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes
Set on an upper floor of a well-maintained mid-century ex-local authority block, this newly renovated two-double-bedroom apartment offers a bright, turn-key home in West Norwood. The living room opens onto a private balcony and receives abundant natural light; the contemporary kitchen and fully refurbished bathroom use fresh fittings and integrated appliances for immediate move-in comfort.
At around 733 sq ft, the layout feels generous: two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, a separate W/C, and a defined reception room suit first-time buyers or professionals seeking space and convenience. Transport links, local shops, parks and a range of primary and secondary schools are close by, and broadband and mobile signal are excellent for home working.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with 178 years remaining, a service charge of about £2,200 per year and a modest ground rent. The block dates from the 1950s–60s and was built using system construction with assumed no cavity insulation; double glazing is present but installation date is unknown. The wider area shows pockets of deprivation and average crime levels, which buyers should weigh against the property’s internal condition and location benefits.
Overall, this apartment offers immediate habitation with scope to personalise over time. It will particularly suit first-time buyers who want a spacious, modern flat ready to occupy, with the usual leasehold costs and mid-century construction considerations made clear up front.
