Light, freshly renovated and chain-free, this one-bedroom first-floor flat sits above Woodside Green in South Norwood. The apartment benefits from a large reception room with high Victorian ceilings and generous windows, a modern fitted kitchen and a contemporary three-piece bathroom — all finished to a clean, neutral standard ready to move into.
Transport is a major strength: Norwood Junction (Zone 4) and nearby tram stops link quickly to central London, Gatwick and Thameslink destinations, making this a practical choice for commuters. Local shops, pubs and three large parks are within walking distance, and several well-regarded primary and secondary schools serve the area.
The flat is leasehold with around 120 years remaining and an average annual service charge of £1,500. At about 401 sq ft it’s compact, so it will suit a single buyer, commuter or investor wanting a straightforward, low-maintenance property with good transport connections. Note the building’s solid-brick Victorian construction likely lacks wall insulation and future works could affect service costs.
Overall this is a small but stylish home offering immediate move-in condition and strong commuter links. Buyers should factor in leasehold tenure, service charge and potential retrofit costs for insulation if long-term running-cost reductions are a priority.
