This one-bedroom apartment on Carlton Road offers a compact, well-presented home ideal for a first purchase or buy-to-let. Set on the second floor of a low-rise block, the flat benefits from good natural light in the lounge and neutral, modern finishes throughout that keep maintenance low.
Practical features include a long lease (145 years), an en-bloc garage and landscaped communal grounds, giving useful storage and outdoor space without garden upkeep. The property’s size (approximately 529 sq ft) makes it easy to run and suits single owners or couples seeking a central Sidcup location.
Location is a key draw: Sidcup High Street’s shops, cafes and transport links are within easy reach, and a mix of local schools makes the area suitable for buyers planning to stay. Financially, the property has modest annual service charges (£1,080) but a council tax at Band C (£2,007.13) that buyers should factor into running costs.
Buyers should note local context: the wider area shows higher-than-average crime rates and some indicators of deprivation. These factors affect resale desirability and rental yield risk, so viewings and local checks are recommended to assess suitability.
