A well-presented one-bedroom apartment in central Eltham, offered chain free with an exceptionally long lease (circa 988 years). The open-plan living area and large windows create a bright, compact home; a south-facing balcony provides direct sunlight and a private spot to relax. Communal gardens and a concierge add convenience and a sense of community for residents.
Practical running details are straightforward: the property sits on leasehold with a modest ground rent (£250) and council tax described as cheap. Heating is via a community scheme, which can simplify bills but may limit individual control. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — useful for home working or streaming.
The location is a genuine strength: immediate access to Eltham’s amenities, shops and restaurants, and close to Eltham station for regular links into London. The apartment suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance urban flat with reliable tenant appeal and easy transport connections.
Notable negatives are factual and important: the area records high crime levels, so buyers should review local safety data and security arrangements. Accommodation is compact and best for a single occupant or couple; bespoke storage or space-expanding renovations could be limited by flat size and communal building rules.
