Bright, contemporary and chain-free, this two-bedroom first-floor apartment offers a generous open-plan living space and modern fittings across 853 sq ft. Skylights and large windows flood the main living area with light, while two double bedrooms and an ensuite cloakroom give flexible sleeping and working options. The property sits within The Renaissance building, a relatively recent development that benefits from good finishing standards and double glazing.
Practical points are straightforward: a long lease (115 years), EPC B rating and mains gas central heating. Commuters will appreciate several nearby stations and easy access to multiple parks including Alexandra and Crystal Palace Park. The flat’s layout—an airy 26'3" living/dining/kitchen—works well for couples, sharers or a buy-to-let investor looking for a low-turnover, easy-to-manage home.
Buyers should note the material running costs: an annual service charge of about £3,308 and ground rent of £350. The building is leasehold and constructed on solid brick (originally 1900–1929), so insulation in walls may be limited. The surrounding area reports higher local crime levels, and broadband/mobile signals are average — factors to weigh for families or those who work from home.
Overall this apartment is a bright, move-in-ready option with commuter convenience and strong rental potential, balanced by above-average communal charges and a leasehold tenure. Viewings are recommended for anyone seeking an easy, central Sydenham base or a straightforward investment purchase.
