Bright, commuter-friendly one-bedroom with garden outlook and parking.
Chain-free ground-floor one-bedroom flat with large corner windows
A bright, ground-floor one-bedroom flat on sought-after Dacres Road, offered chain-free and ready for immediate occupation. The apartment benefits from large corner windows that flood the living space with light and provide pleasant views over the communal garden, creating a relaxed, leafy feel uncommon for inner-city locations. The double bedroom includes built-in storage and the oversized living/kitchen forms the heart of the home for cooking and entertaining.
Practical advantages include a designated off-street parking space, a lengthy 112-year lease, and an EPC rating of C. Transport is straightforward: Forest Hill station (Overground and Southern) is within a short walk, making this a sensible choice for commuters. Local amenities—cafés, shops, parks and several well-rated primary and secondary schools—add to the everyday convenience.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with an annual service charge of £1,951.53 and a ground rent of £250. The neighbourhood records above-average crime and is classified as relatively deprived, so buyers prioritising quiet or very low-crime areas may wish to investigate further. The flat is well maintained and relatively modern (constructed 2007–2011) but offers scope for cosmetic updating to personalise the space.
Overall, this compact but well-lit flat suits first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a commuter-friendly, low-maintenance home with outdoor outlook and parking. The long lease and chain-free status simplify purchase logistics, while the service charge and local safety metrics are material factors to consider before committing.
