Set on the first floor, this two-bedroom flat offers a bright reception room, separate modern kitchen and large double bedrooms. At approximately 824 sq ft the layout feels generous for a flat this size, with direct access to a shared garden for outdoor space. Its double glazing and mains gas central heating provide straightforward day-to-day comfort.
The location suits commuters and young families: Selhurst and Norwood Junction stations are within easy reach for fast central London links, and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are nearby. Local amenities include shops, pubs and regular buses, making everyday errands convenient.
Important leasehold considerations: the lease has around 61 years remaining and there is a small ground rent of £150. Some mortgage lenders may refuse to lend with this lease length, so buyers should check finance options early. The property shows signs of wear and would benefit from modernization in places; there is also no assumed cavity insulation in the solid brick walls.
Buyers seeking immediate rental income or a first home with commuter convenience will appreciate the location and size. Those needing long-term mortgage certainty or a fully refurbished finish should factor in potential lender restrictions and renovation costs.
