Set on the Bexley/Bexleyheath border, this two-bedroom first-floor maisonette offers straightforward, chain-free purchase with 138 years remaining on the lease. The layout includes a spacious lounge, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom, plus the rare combination of a private rear garden and a garage — valuable extras for first-time buyers or landlords.
The property is in reasonable condition but does require renovation and updating throughout, offering scope to add value. Construction dates from the mid-20th century mean original cavity walls likely lack insulation; double glazing is present but install date is unknown. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators.
Practical local strengths include excellent broadband and mobile signal, low crime, affordable council tax, and proximity to highly rated schools such as Townley Grammar and Upton Primary. Local shops, buses and train links are within easy reach, making daily life convenient and attractive to families or tenants.
Key financial facts are straightforward: leasehold with a low ground rent of £20 per annum, no service charge and no forward chain. The property’s small overall size and need for refurbishment should be weighed against the potential to modernise for owner-occupation or rental income in a popular, affluent area.
