This spacious ground-floor flat in Lords Wood House combines substantial period proportions with a private, well-kept rear garden and off-street parking. High ceilings, large sash windows and decorative moldings give strong character throughout; rooms feel generous and light, and the long hallway’s teak flooring sets a welcoming tone. The master bedroom benefits from an en-suite; both bedrooms have fitted wardrobes.
The apartment sits within a village-style development surrounded by 184 acres of countryside, with residents’ facilities including a gym, swimming pool, tennis courts and green open space — ideal for active downsizers or professionals seeking quieter living with easy outdoor access. Transport links to Coulsdon South and the M25/M23 are within short driving distance.
Practical points are clear and factual: the property is leasehold (very long 975-year lease) with a small annual ground rent of £150 and an expensive council tax band. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow. The building is a 1900–1929 solid-brick construction; walls may lack modern insulation and the double glazing was installed before 2002, so some thermal and upgrade works could be considered by buyers seeking maximum energy efficiency.
Overall this is a character-rich, large two-bedroom apartment with a private garden and communal amenities — well suited to someone prioritising space, period detail and outdoor access, and willing to accept or invest in modest building and energy upgrades.
