Light-filled and full of period charm, this ground-floor Victorian conversion offers a comfortable two-bedroom layout with a private garden. The large bay-fronted reception has high ceilings, original fireplace and wood floors that create an immediate sense of character and space. The kitchen/breakfast room provides room for casual dining and entertaining.
Practical details suit both owner-occupiers and buy-to-let buyers: the flat extends to around 754 sq ft, benefits from double glazing (fitted after 2002), gas central heating, and comes chain-free with a 101-year lease and share of freehold. Local transport is excellent — close to Sydenham Overground and Penge East — and a wide range of shops, pubs and parks are within easy reach.
Buyers should note the building’s solid-brick construction likely has limited wall insulation as originally built, so there is scope (and potential cost) to improve thermal performance. EPC rating is C. The property is well-suited to those seeking period character near green spaces and good schools, while offering straightforward potential to modernise or personalise over time.
