Newly renovated one-bedroom flat with garden and long lease, moments from Lewisham station..
Private entrance and chain free ownership
A newly renovated one-bedroom Victorian conversion with private entrance and 581 sq ft of well-arranged space, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a move-in ready home near Lewisham transport links. The flat presents a large bay-fronted double bedroom and a bright open-plan kitchen/living area that opens directly onto a well-maintained private garden — a rare outdoor space for a property of this size.
Practical ownership is straightforward: share of freehold with c.959 years remaining, no service charge or ground rent, and offered chain free. Fixtures include double glazing (install date unknown), mains gas boiler and radiators, and integrated kitchen appliances — recently modernised throughout.
Buyers should note material local factors: the immediate area has very high recorded crime and is classified as deprived, which may influence resale considerations and personal security choices. The building is solid-brick Victorian construction with no known cavity insulation, so energy efficiency may be lower than newer builds.
Overall, this apartment is a compact, well-presented starter home with outdoor space and excellent access to Lewisham DLR and rail. It suits someone prioritising location, a ready-to-live-in interior and long lease security, while accepting the trade-offs of location-related safety and potential insulation upgrades.
