Summary - LAIT HOUSE, 1 FLAT 68 ALBEMARLE ROAD BECKENHAM BR3 5LN
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Ready-move-in one-bedroom close to station and shops.
Fifth-floor apartment with lift access and bright open-plan living
A bright, recently renovated one-bedroom apartment in the heart of Beckenham, just a minute’s walk from Beckenham Junction station and the High Street. The fifth-floor home benefits from lift access, open-plan living with integrated kitchen appliances, built-in bedroom wardrobes and generous storage — a ready-to-move-in option for a first-time buyer wanting immediate commuter convenience.
Practical comforts include an allocated gated parking space, triple glazing and a long lease (around 110 years remaining). Service charges run at approximately £270.41 per month (c. £3,244.92 per year), and the property is sold chain-free, simplifying any purchase timetable.
Important considerations: heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, and the area records a very high crime rate — both factors to weigh when budgeting and viewing. The apartment holds an Energy Rating of C and sits in Council Tax Band C, which helps running costs, but the relatively high service charge reflects communal maintenance and facilities.
Overall this flat suits a commuter first-time buyer seeking a low-maintenance, modern home with secure parking and excellent transport links, provided you are comfortable with electric heating and the local crime profile.
