Set on a quiet, architecturally appealing road near Crystal Palace Park, this one-bedroom apartment occupies a spacious 557 sq ft within a period conversion. The flat benefits from a large double bedroom with garden views, an open-plan reception and dining area, a modern kitchen, and access to attractive communal gardens—ideal for morning coffee or light outdoor entertaining. Share of freehold and an exceptionally long lease (990 years) are strong ownership advantages.
Practical conveniences include free on-street parking, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and straightforward commuter links via Penge West, Penge East and Crystal Palace stations. The local area offers many independent shops, cafés and eateries around the Crystal Palace Triangle, plus several highly regarded state and independent schools nearby—appealing for first-time buyers or downsizers seeking lifestyle and connectivity.
There are a few material factors to note: the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so energy efficiency upgrades may be needed. The area records above-average crime and local deprivation measures, which should be weighed against the property’s other strengths. The attic space has lower ceilings and a compact footprint, so usable storage or conversion potential is limited without work.
Overall, this apartment suits a buyer seeking period character, convenient transport links and communal outdoor space, who is prepared to consider modest improvements for improved comfort and efficiency.
