Summary - 185 Etta Street, New Cross SE8 5NR
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Quiet first-floor home a short walk from Deptford and New Cross stations.
First-floor one-bedroom with high ceilings and bay window character
This well-presented first-floor one-bedroom home sits in a quiet stretch of Etta Street, a five-minute walk from both Deptford and New Cross stations. Period features such as high ceilings and a bay window give the reception room character, while recent double glazing and gas central heating provide everyday comfort.
The kitchen-diner is fitted and includes integrated white goods and a full-sized dishwasher, and the bathroom is finished with slate-effect wall tiles and a heated towel rail. At around 606 sq ft the layout feels roomy for a single occupant or couple, and the property benefits from a private garden and low annual running costs — service charge £189 and ground rent £10.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with 103 years remaining, in a building of solid brick construction likely lacking wall insulation. The immediate area is an inner-city location with high crime and significant local deprivation, which may matter to some buyers. The communal entrance is shared, and buyers should confirm details and measurements before proceeding.
This home will suit a first-time buyer seeking character and strong transport links without high ongoing charges, or a buy-to-let investor looking for straightforward, low-maintenance accommodation close to central London connections. There is scope to add value through targeted improvements, particularly insulation and cosmetic updates.
