Summary - FLAT D, 111 GIPSY ROAD, LONDON SE27 9QS
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright starter flat with long lease and easy transport links.
Top-floor Victorian conversion with elevated roofline views
Set on the top floor of a Victorian mid-terrace conversion, this one-bedroom flat is a straightforward entry-level home or buy-to-let opportunity. The open-plan living/kitchen benefits from good natural light and elevated views across neighbouring rooflines, while the double bedroom is roomy for the size. Chain-free sale and a long lease (122 years) simplify purchase.
Practical running costs are modest: council tax band B is inexpensive and the service charge is below local averages at £250 per year. The building has double glazing fitted since 2002 and mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators. Transport links are strong, with Gipsy Hill and West Norwood stations within easy reach and Norwood Park close by.
Be clear about limitations: the flat is compact at around 493 sq ft with limited built-in storage and modest communal space. The building’s original solid brick walls likely have no cavity insulation, which could mean higher heating costs unless upgraded. The wider area scores as deprived and local crime is average — factors worth checking against personal priorities.
Overall this top-floor conversion will suit a first-time buyer seeking a bright, low-maintenance starter home or an investor after a central, well-connected one-bedroom let. The property’s presentation and location are its strongest selling points; some owners may choose to invest in insulation or additional storage to maximise comfort and value.
