Compact first-home near Gipsy Hill and Crystal Palace stations with refurbishment potential.
Juliette balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows provide strong natural light
Set on the first floor of a purpose-built 1970s block, this one-bedroom apartment offers a bright reception room with floor-to-ceiling windows and a Juliette balcony. The layout includes a well-proportioned double bedroom, a fitted kitchen and a three-piece bathroom across an average-sized 497 sq ft plan.
The flat is well connected: Gipsy Hill and Crystal Palace stations are within easy reach and local shops, cafés and amenities serve a diverse, inner-city neighbourhood. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are reported as good, supporting home working or streaming.
Practical points to note: the block’s exposed-concrete, Brutalist-style architecture and some interior areas show their 1970s origins and would benefit from updating. The property is leasehold and situated in an area with above-average crime rates and higher local deprivation; buyers should factor these points into their decision.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer or investor seeking a well-located home with straightforward refurbishment potential and good transport links.
