Ready-to-live-in and surprisingly spacious for its type, this two-double-bedroom first-floor maisonette offers nearly 700 sq ft of comfortable living with a private rear garden. A bright bay-fronted reception, modern fitted kitchen and contemporary bathroom mean you can move in without major work. The garden and external outbuilding add valuable outdoor and storage space unusual at this price point.
The location is practical for everyday life: 0.8 miles from Chislehurst High Street and 1.2 miles from New Eltham station with direct central London connections. Local primary schools rated Good are within walking distance, and public transport and local amenities are readily accessible. Service charges are low at £968 per year and ground rent is a peppercorn, keeping running costs competitive.
There are important leasehold considerations. The lease has c.89 years remaining, which may affect mortgage options and future resale value — buyers should investigate lease-extension costs. The building dates from the 1950s–60s and external cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so improving heat efficiency may be desirable. The wider area is classified as very deprived, which may concern some buyers despite low local crime levels.
Overall this maisonette will suit first-time buyers seeking a spacious starter home near transport and schools, or investors looking for an affordable buy-to-let with garden appeal. Be mindful of the remaining lease length and potential energy-efficiency works when budgeting.
