A compact ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Sterling Gardens, New Cross, offering 437 sq ft of practical living with private entrance and communal garden. The open-plan kitchen/living area and double bedroom make this a straightforward starter home or city buy-to-let. The property is chain free and comes with allocated off-street parking and an exceptionally long lease (953 years).
The building dates from the 1980s and benefits from double glazing updated after 2002 and cavity wall insulation. Transport links are strong — New Cross Gate and New Cross stations are within walking distance and frequent bus routes stop nearby, making central London commuting simple. Mobile signal is excellent, though broadband speeds are reported slow, which may affect home working.
Practical considerations include electric storage heating and electric main fuel, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The flat is small and compact, so it will suit singles or couples rather than families requiring more space. The local area is described as deprived but cosmopolitan and lively, with cafés, bars and Goldsmiths nearby — attractive to younger buyers and renters.
Overall this property presents a low-entry opportunity for first-time buyers or investors seeking a manageable, chain-free London flat with parking and long lease security. Buyers should budget for potential heating upgrades and expect limited broadband performance.
