A bright, top-floor one-bedroom apartment presented in good order and offered with no onward chain. The living area is open-plan to a modern fitted kitchen, and the property includes a large double bedroom and contemporary bathroom—ready to move into for a first-time buyer or investor seeking immediate occupancy.
The property is part of a Victorian terrace and benefits from a share of the freehold and an exceptionally long lease of 991 years, giving long-term security and low lease-related costs. At roughly 540 sq ft, the apartment is an average-sized home with wood flooring, good natural light and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
Location is a key draw: it’s a short walk to Norwood Junction station with direct trains to central London terminals, local parks and community amenities close by. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and streaming.
Buyers should note material negatives factually: the local area records very high crime levels and is classified as deprived, which may affect insurance, resale and day-to-day amenity perceptions. Being a top-floor flat, access is by stairs only (no lift). Council tax is described as cheap, but prospective purchasers should check exact banding and running costs.
