Set on the first floor of a recent new‑build development between Honor Oak Park and Brockley, this one‑bedroom apartment offers contemporary, low‑maintenance living across 657 sqft. The open‑plan living room and kitchen provides generous entertaining space (c.330 sqft) and opens onto a private balcony — a useful extra for fresh air and city views. The double bedroom is roomy enough for a home desk, making it suitable for remote working. EPC B and FTTP broadband meet modern efficiency and connectivity expectations.
Practical ownership details are straightforward but important: the property is leasehold with 120 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £2,200 and ground rent of £250 per year. There is no allocated parking. Council Tax Band B is relatively low, which helps running costs.
Location is a major draw for first‑time buyers and investors: an inner‑city, cosmopolitan feel with many cafés, pubs, shops and green spaces nearby, plus several well‑rated local schools. Rail and Overground connections from Honor Oak Park, Forest Hill and Crofton Park provide good routes to central London and Canary Wharf. Note the local crime rate is above average and the wider area has pockets of deprivation — factors to weigh alongside the strong transport and amenity links.
Overall this is a modern, well‑proportioned one‑bed apartment aimed at single buyers or couples seeking a ready‑to‑move‑into home or a city rental investment with decent tenant appeal. Consider the service charge, ground rent and lack of parking when assessing affordability or rental yield.
