Ground-floor apartment with garage and communal gardens, ideal for first-time buyers.
Ground-floor one-bedroom with open-plan living
A bright one-bedroom ground-floor apartment in a 1960s purpose-built block on sought-after Auckland Road. The open-plan layout and large windows create a light, airy living space, with a fitted kitchen and a roomy bedroom offering comfortable everyday living. Outside there are communal gardens and a private garage, plus nearby woodland and lake walks for regular green-space access.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (984 years) and a manageable service charge of about £1,080 per year, making ownership straightforward for a first-time buyer or investor. Transport links are strong: Crystal Palace, Anerley and Norwood Junction stations are all within roughly a mile, giving good connections to central London and Croydon.
Be upfront about the energy and fabric: the flat uses electric storage heaters and the cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation, so heating costs could be higher than modern gas-heated homes. The block dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, so communal maintenance and periodic updates are possible over time. Overall this is an accessible, well-located one-bedroom with parking and green space — a practical entry into the area with clear scopes for energy improvements if wanted.
