Set on Wickham Road within the Brockley conservation area, this chain-free two-bedroom Victorian conversion offers character features and a practical central location. High ceilings and original sash windows create a bright, airy feel in an open-plan living area, while a communal garden provides low-maintenance outdoor space.
At 557 sq ft (51.7 sqm) the flat is compact and best suited to first-time buyers or couples wanting period character without garden upkeep. The property is leasehold with 132 years remaining and a modest ground rent of £250. EPC Band D and solid brick walls (likely uninsulated) mean energy improvements could reduce bills and raise comfort.
Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and accessible local amenities; several well-rated primary and secondary schools are nearby. Notable negatives are the small overall size, average EPC, and potential costs for insulating solid walls or modernising heating and finishes.
This is a straightforward, characterful flat that suits someone prioritising location, period features and outdoor communal space over large internal floor area. Chain-free status and a long lease reduce transactional friction for buyers ready to move quickly.
