Set on the second floor of a circa-1900 mid-terrace, this 496 sq ft studio offers bright, practical living with a modern eat-in kitchen. The open studio room has plenty of natural light and contemporary finishes, making it move-in ready for a first home or rental letting.
Practical running costs are clear: leasehold tenure with a service charge of £209 pcm and a small ground rent of £100. Heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators; windows are double glazed (install date unknown). The building’s solid brick walls likely have no cavity insulation, which could affect heating costs and may warrant improvement.
Location is a major asset — close to shops, eateries, Grangewood Park and Crystal Palace amenities, with excellent mobile signal and average broadband. Note the local area records above-average crime and older communal parts of the building may need updating. No flood risk.
This property suits first-time buyers wanting an affordable London foothold or buy-to-let investors after a compact, well-located studio. Be aware of the leasehold status, periodic service charges and potential retrofit works for thermal performance.
