This recently renovated lower‑ground Victorian conversion offers bright, contemporary living with period character and a private rear garden. The open‑plan kitchen and bay‑lit reception create an inviting social space, and parquet flooring runs throughout for a cohesive finish. At 608 sq ft the layout suits first‑time buyers or couples who prioritise location over generous room sizes.
Practical points work in the flat’s favour: the lease has around 150 years remaining, it is chain‑free, and modern bathroom and kitchen fittings reduce immediate maintenance needs. Transport links are excellent — Penge East is about a 2‑minute walk and Penge West about seven — and broadband and mobile signals are reported as very good.
Buyers should note this is a lower‑ground/basement unit, so natural light and outlook are more limited than upper‑floor flats. The building’s solid brick walls are listed as having no insulation (assumed), which may affect running costs and potential improvement works. Service charges average about £1,200 a year and the flat is sold leasehold.
In short: a well‑finished, chain‑free starter home close to two rail stations with a private garden and clear scope for a buyer to personalise further. Factor in the flat’s compact size, lower‑ground aspect and likely retrofit/insulation considerations when viewing.
