This top-floor two-bedroom Victorian conversion at Heathwood Gardens is a bright, characterful apartment ideal for first-time buyers or investors prepared to refurbish. Set within a period building, the south-facing reception room floods with natural light and the layout includes a separate modern-feel kitchen and useful built-in storage. Chain-free sale and 125 years remaining on the lease make purchase straightforward.
The flat totals about 810 sq ft and sits in a commuter-friendly pocket of Charlton with excellent transport links: Charlton Station, fast bus routes to North Greenwich (Jubilee), and nearby Woolwich DLR/Elizabeth Line. Local schools include several rated Good and Outstanding, and the area is low-crime with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical for families and home workers alike.
The property needs renovation throughout, offering clear scope to add value through redecoration, reconfiguration or insulation upgrades. Double glazing has been installed post-2002, but cavity walls are currently uninsulated (assumed), so buyers should budget for energy-efficiency improvements. Annual service charge is £1,705.47 and there is no ground rent.
This is a genuine blank canvas in a desirable SE7 location: a chance to create a long-term family home or a lettable investment with capital upside once modernised. Important practical points — lease length, service charge and the need for renovation — are set out clearly for a confident, hands-on purchaser.
