Approx 572 sq ft one-bed ground-floor period conversion
This ground-floor period conversion offers a well-proportioned one-bedroom home in the heart of Sydenham, extending to approximately 572 sq ft. It combines high ceilings, a separate kitchen and a generous reception room — features that make the layout feel larger than typical one-bed flats.

Overall this is a practical, well-located starter home with long-term security from the leasehold position.
