Affordable shared-ownership flat with parking and a sunny balcony near good transport links.
Southeast-facing balcony with morning and early-afternoon light
A bright one-bedroom apartment offered as a 60% shared ownership share, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking an affordable step onto the ladder. The apartment is in pristine condition with a 19 ft reception opening onto a southeast-facing balcony that catches morning and early-afternoon light. The semi open-plan kitchen keeps the main living space social and practical.
Practical features include double-glazed windows, new shutters, fitted entrance storage, an allocated off-street parking space and a communal cycle store. The building was constructed in the late 2000s and benefits from mains gas central heating and an entry-phone system. The lease has 109 years remaining and running costs are modest: annual service charge £936.24 and ground rent £200.
Be aware this is shared ownership: the current 60% share is priced at £162,000, with rent on the remaining 40% at £293.80 monthly. The property sits in an area classified as very deprived with higher local crime levels, so buyers should consider local context alongside the value on offer. Transport links to Orpington and Bromley South stations and good local schools are positive practical factors for daily life.
Overall this apartment offers a comfortable, low-maintenance home with sensible running costs and clear scope to staircase (buy more share) over time. It will suit buyers prioritising affordability, convenience and a modern, ready-to-live-in flat, provided they accept the shared ownership terms and local-area challenges.
