Set on a quiet residential road moments from Norwood Junction, this chain-free first-floor conversion offers practical, well-proportioned living in a sought-after South London location. The flat includes two genuine double bedrooms and a kitchen-diner with space for cooking and entertaining, making it a good match for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
The building retains Edwardian character externally while the interior combines period features with modern touches such as pre-2002 double glazing and a gas boiler with radiator heating. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit working-from-home needs; green space at Grangewood Park and South Norwood Country Park is within easy walking distance, and Norwood Junction provides direct trains to London Bridge in around 12 minutes.
Practical considerations are clear: the overall floor area is small at approximately 427 sq ft, the property is leasehold (about 134 years remaining) and there is a below-average annual service charge of £900. The walls are solid brick with no assumed insulation, so there may be future scope (and cost) for insulating improvements to reduce heating bills and improve comfort.
This home is offered chain-free, which can simplify and speed up a purchase. It will suit a buyer seeking a well-connected, characterful flat with immediate rental or residential use, while those wanting more internal space or a fully modernised thermal envelope should factor potential improvement works into their plans.
