Bright, ground-floor two-bedroom maisonette set in a 1930s semi with private garden and direct access to Havelock Recreation Ground. The home offers an open-plan kitchen/reception, a recently updated bathroom and a utility area, all within an easy 0.6-mile walk of Bromley South station. Off-street parking and a long lease make this a low-hassle purchase for local families or first-time buyers.
The location is a key strength: several highly rated schools (including La Fontaine Academy and St George’s, both outstanding) are within walking distance. Commuters benefit from fast rail links into central London, and the neighbourhood has plentiful shops, cafes and green space. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are reported strong.
The flat is compact at about 464 sq ft, so it suits buyers seeking a manageable, well-located home rather than large living areas. The building dates from the 1930s with solid-brick walls; there is likely no wall insulation, and heating is by mains gas room heaters, so buyers wanting improved energy performance may wish to upgrade heating and insulation.
Practical points: the lease is effectively long (about 930 years), ground rent is small (£50 pa) and there is no service charge. Council tax is affordable and the property is not in a flooding risk area. Overall this is a convenient, well-positioned maisonette that offers immediate liveability with scope for energy upgrades or cosmetic modernisation.
