Summary - 31 WAYLANDS MEAD BECKENHAM BR3 5XT
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Well‑located upper-floor home near shops, schools and fast transport.
South-facing balcony capturing strong daily sunlight
A bright one-bedroom apartment on an upper floor, situated close to central Beckenham and local transport. The living room opens onto a south-facing balcony that captures sunlight throughout the day, while the separate kitchen and well-sized bedroom provide practical, comfortable living space. At about 599 sq ft, the layout feels roomy for a single occupant or couple.
The building dates from the 1980s and benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and secure entry. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — useful for working from home. The lease is long (approximately 199 years), removing a common leasehold concern for buyers.
Notable negatives are the location's very high recorded crime level and above-average council tax band; these are material factors for living comfort and running costs. The apartment is presented in generally good order but sits in a built-up urban area, so buyers seeking quieter or more rural settings should consider this. Overall, the property suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a well‑located one-bedroom close to shops, schools and transport.
