This chain-free, share-of-freehold ground-floor conversion offers a bright one-bedroom home in a convenient Selhurst location. At 428 sq ft the flat is compact but well laid out, with an open-plan reception/kitchen, double bedroom and private garden — a practical choice for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. Fast rail links from nearby Selhurst station and local shops are within easy walking distance.
The interior benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and modern finishes throughout, so it’s ready to occupy with minimal immediate works. The long lease (about 110 years remaining from a 2007 term) and ground rent/service charge details to be confirmed give a degree of tenure security, though buyers should obtain solicitor confirmation on costs.
Notable negatives are the property’s small overall size and the location’s higher-than-average local deprivation and crime levels, which may affect resale and rental prospects. The building dates from the 1930s–40s and has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation; consider potential future energy-efficiency improvements. Service charges and garage/parking arrangements are not specified and should be checked before purchase.
Overall, this ground-floor flat represents a straightforward, low-maintenance option for someone seeking a central South Norwood base with good transport links and private outside space, while accepting modest room sizes and the need to confirm running costs and local considerations.
