A well-presented ground-floor one-bedroom flat with a private rear garden, offered chain free with a share of freehold. The long lease (992 years) and compact, efficient layout make this a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor seeking low entry costs. The flat benefits from modern finishes inside — wood-effect floors, a fitted kitchen and double glazing — and sits close to Forest Hill and Catford stations for fast central London links.
The accommodation is small (approx. 415 sq ft) but arranged logically in a linear plan: bedroom to front, central reception and kitchen at the rear opening onto the garden. Practical positives include mains gas central heating, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband speeds, plus a low council tax band. Local amenities, cafés and green spaces such as Blythe Hill Fields and Mayow Park are within easy reach.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the overall footprint is compact and suits one-bedroom needs only; there is no off-street parking; external parts of the Victorian terrace may need some work; and the original solid brick walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation. The wider area shows pockets of deprivation, so check locality details if council or neighbourhood profile matters.
Overall this ground-floor flat offers a rare combination of private outside space, long lease security and immediate access to transport — an accessible starter home or rental asset in an inner-city location, provided you’re comfortable with modest floorspace and potential external maintenance.
