Ideal starter home near park and transport links for convenient city living.
Well-lit first-floor one-bedroom apartment
Short lease; 125-year lease available for £35,000
Compact size: approximately 368 sq ft
Separate fitted kitchen; needs some modernisation
Allocated off-street parking included
Access to lush communal gardens
Moments from Beckenham Place Park and High Street
About 10-minute walk to Beckenham Junction transport
A compact, well-lit one-bedroom apartment on the first floor of a quiet cul-de-sac, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking an affordable London entry point. The layout includes a reception room, separate fitted kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom, with the benefit of a lush communal garden and allocated off-street parking.
The property is sold with a short lease and offered as-is. There is a clear route to extend tenure: a new 125-year lease can be arranged at completion for an additional £35,000. The kitchen has modern cabinetry but shows signs of dated design and would benefit from updating; the apartment overall is a small 368 sq ft home that will suit buyers comfortable with compact living or willing to refresh finishes.
Location is a strong asset — moments from Beckenham Place Park, a short walk to Beckenham High Street amenities, and about ten minutes on foot to Beckenham Junction for rail and tram services to London Victoria, London Bridge, East Croydon and Wimbledon. Local schools include several Ofsted-rated Good and Outstanding options, and the area scores highly for affluence and digital connectivity.
This flat represents straightforward value for someone wanting an entry-level London property with garden access and parking, provided they accept the short lease condition or choose to purchase the lease extension. Buyers should budget for potential refurbishment and the lease premium if they prefer long-term security.
