This ground-floor two-bedroom period flat on Wiverton Road is a practical, well-proportioned home with genuine first-time buyer appeal. The property benefits from high ceilings in the front rooms, a bay-windowed master bedroom and a separate, spacious kitchen that opens toward a private west-facing garden — ideal for afternoon sun and small outdoor gatherings.
A notable bonus is the generous basement, which provides substantial storage options rarely found with flats of this type. The flat is offered chain free with a share of freehold and no service charges, simplifying purchase and ongoing costs for an owner-occupier. Local transport is strong, with Penge East and Sydenham stations close by and easy access to Crystal Palace amenities and parks.
Buyers should be aware of a few practical considerations: the building is solid brick (likely without cavity insulation), the EPC is rated D, and the home may benefit from targeted energy and cosmetic improvements to modernise. Overall condition is reasonable and the layout offers scope for modest refurbishment or future value-add projects, making this a sensible buy for a first-time buyer or small family seeking space, garden access and low running complexity.
