Top-floor flat with bright principal rooms and storage
Leasehold with long lease ~142 years, small ground rent
Service charge £884 (paid quarterly) — factor into running costs
Above-average local crime and signs of area deprivation
Secondary glazing; cavity walls assumed with no added insulation
Compact 446 sq ft footprint — suited to singles/couples/investors
Set on the top floor of a well-kept mid-20th century block, this 446 sq ft flat sits directly opposite Crystal Palace Park and close to three stations. The layout includes a sizable double bedroom, a separate living room and kitchen, plus deep built-in hallway cupboards for practical storage. A private garage is a standout benefit for the area and rare for flats here.
The property is offered leasehold with a long lease (approx. 142 years remaining), modest ground rent (£15.75 p.a.) and a service charge of £884 (paid quarterly). Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; windows are secondary glazed. The building appears maintained externally with a small communal garden and secure entry system.
Be realistic about drawbacks: the wider area records above-average crime and signs of local deprivation, and the walls are assumed cavity construction with no added insulation. The internal space is compact for modern living, so the flat will suit a single buyer, couple, or buy-to-let investor rather than those needing larger family accommodation.
For a first-time buyer this offers an affordable foothold in a well-connected location with immediate access to green space, good local schools and several transport options. For investors, the location and garage add rental appeal; prospective purchasers should commission their own surveys and budget for any modernisation or energy-efficiency upgrades.
