Set within a period conversion on Honor Oak Road, this two-bedroom flat offers practical, light-filled accommodation with direct access to a private section of the communal garden. The open-plan kitchen/living area creates a social heart for everyday life and entertaining, while two front bedrooms provide straightforward sleeping space. The home is offered chain free, with a very long lease (986 years), making it appealing to buyers seeking a simple purchase process and long-term security.
Location is a genuine selling point: the flat sits close to Honor Oak Park and Forest Hill stations, with fast links into central London, and local green spaces such as Horniman Gardens and Blythe Hill Fields nearby. The neighbourhood profile suits professionals and first-time buyers who want an inner‑city cosmopolitan setting with good schools and cafés within easy reach.
Buyers should note practical points: the flat is a lower-ground style conversion with modest room proportions and typically lower ceiling heights than full‑height ground-floor flats. The annual service charge is about £3,000, which should be factored into running costs. Tenure is leasehold, though the remaining term (986 years) is effectively equivalent to freehold for most buyers.
Overall this is a well‑located, ready-to-live-in two-bedroom conversion that suits first-time buyers or investors seeking an inner‑city flat with private garden access and minimal immediate works required. Verify service charge details and any communal maintenance plans before proceeding.
