This first-floor maisonette offers a well-presented, newly renovated interior across a compact 614 sq ft layout, ideal for first-time buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in home. The large dual-aspect reception room and bay-windowed main bedroom boost natural light and give a feeling of space, while the modern kitchen and recently updated bathroom reduce immediate maintenance costs.
Outside, an expansive private garden provides valuable outdoor space rarely found with flats, and the property sits in a quiet cul-de-sac close to Norwood Junction station and local parks — helpful for commuting and weekend downtime. Several good and outstanding-rated primary and secondary schools lie nearby, which supports longer-term family planning.
Be aware this is a small maisonette in an inner-city area with high measured deprivation locally; the surrounding neighbourhood has average crime levels. The building is a 1930s solid-brick construction with assumed no cavity insulation, so buyers should consider potential insulating or heating upgrades. The lease is long (circa 910 years) with a nominal £5 ground rent, but tenure remains leasehold.
Overall, this property suits buyers who want a move-in-ready, characterful flat with private garden and strong transport links, and who are comfortable with the realities of an inner-city location and possible future retrofit work.
