This split-level, two-bedroom apartment on Westow Hill offers 738 sq ft of light-filled living across a traditional layout. Set on the third floor, the flat includes a spacious reception room, separate kitchen, bathroom and two doubles, plus built-in storage and elevated London views. Recent updates include a new immersion heater element; the property benefits from sizable rooms and good natural light.
The location is a strong asset: Crystal Palace Triangle’s cafés, shops and restaurants are on your doorstep, with Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill stations within easy reach. Green space at Crystal Palace Park and South Norwood Lakes is a short walk away, making the flat practical for commuting and weekend leisure alike.
Practical considerations: the home uses electric storage heating and mains electricity; double glazing dates from before 2002 and the building’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated. Broadband speeds are reported as slow, and the immediate area records higher crime levels than average — these factors may affect running costs and lifestyle expectations. The lease has approximately 147 years remaining and the tenure is leasehold.
This property will suit a first-time buyer or investor seeking a well-located, characterful apartment with scope to modernise and improve energy performance. It offers immediate occupation potential but will reward buyers willing to upgrade heating, insulation and connectivity.
