Building period character but likely requires modernisation and survey
This top-floor studio in Norbury Crescent is a compact, bright flat arranged as an open living space with a separate kitchen and bathroom. Located within a mid-20th century building with period character, it benefits from large windows and neutral décor that make the most of the 320 sq ft layout.
The property is chain-free and sold with sitting tenants, making it immediately attractive to buy-to-let investors seeking rental income. It also suits first-time buyers seeking a low-entry London purchase with fast broadband and good transport links — Norbury station is a short walk away.
Buyers should note material practicalities: the flat is leasehold (about 121 years remaining), heated by electric room heaters with no communal gas central heating, and the building’s solid-brick walls likely lack added insulation. The area scores high on crime and deprivation indices and the property has a medium flood risk — factors to consider for owner-occupiers and investors alike.
A straightforward purchase for an investor or first-time buyer prepared to accept a small footprint and some maintenance/modernisation. Prospective purchasers are advised to verify leasepack costs, commission a survey (services and appliances untested), and factor in possible refurbishment to upgrade heating and insulation.
