Summary - Flat 2, Orchard Court, 179 Sydenham Road SE26 5GJ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious two-bedroom ground-floor flat with parking — good starter or investment opportunity.
Large reception 21ft 6in x 12ft 5in, ideal for living/entertaining
Light-filled ground-floor apartment set within a contemporary development on Sydenham Road. The surprisingly large reception (approx. 21ft 6in x 12ft 5in) and an equally generous kitchen with integrated appliances create open, comfortable living and entertaining space. Both bedrooms are doubles with garden-facing windows; the master benefits from fitted storage. Quality wood-style flooring, double glazing and modern recessed lighting keep the finish straightforward and low-maintenance.
Practical features include secured off-street parking, fast broadband and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators. The communal area is mainly patio with established planting, offering a low-maintenance outside space. With 99 years remaining on the lease and an average-sized footprint (around 643 sq ft), the flat suits a couple or first-time buyer seeking a central Sydenham base with good links and local amenities.
Be clear on the material considerations: the property is leasehold (99 years remaining) with an annual service charge around £2,304. The wider neighbourhood scores as deprived with above-average crime statistics — factors that may affect resale and rental demand. Council tax is described as affordable and there is no flood risk. Overall this is a well-presented, practical starter home or buy-to-let that needs no immediate refurbishment but should be assessed in light of service costs and local area indicators.
