Summary - 18 The Hunters, 40, Foxgrove Road BR3 5BL
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Close to Beckenham Junction and park, ideal entry-level purchase.
Second-floor one-bedroom flat with balcony overlooking communal gardens
A compact, well-located one-bedroom flat on the second floor of a 1970s brick apartment block, ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let purchaser. The reception room opens via French doors onto a balcony that overlooks well-kept communal gardens, and the flat includes an en-bloc garage and shared parking.
The accommodation is practical and modest in size: separate kitchen, double bedroom with built-in wardrobe, bathroom and useful hallway storage. The long lease (approximately 976 years) and share of freehold reduce longer-term ownership risk, while fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit modern working from home needs.
Important points to note: the property sits in a block with a service charge of about £2,100 per year (includes building insurance). The EPC is rated D, so heating and efficiency improvements could be considered. The flat has no private garden — outdoor space is communal only — and overall space is typical of a one-bedroom city/suburban apartment.
Location is a genuine strength: about 0.5 miles to Beckenham Junction and Ravensbourne rail stations and 0.3 miles to Beckenham Place Park, making commutes and green space access straightforward. For buyers seeking an affordable entry to the area or a rental purchase with low lease risk and decent local amenities, this presents clear potential with modest, sensible investment in energy improvements or further cosmetic refurbishment.
