Light-filled two-bedroom first-floor conversion with private roof terrace, set above a parade on Forest Hill Road. At around 500 sq ft this compact flat is well presented with modern finishes, double glazing and a fitted kitchen — suited to first-time buyers, sharers or buy-to-let investors seeking a low-maintenance central SE22 base.
Outside space is a key asset: the private roof terrace provides elevated outdoor dining and city-adjacent views, and one bedroom opens directly onto it, extending the living area in warm months. Peckham Rye Park is a short walk away and both Peckham Rye and East Dulwich stations are reachable within about 15 minutes, making commuting straightforward.
Practical details — the property is leasehold (999 years remaining) and offered chain free, with an unusually low service charge of approx. £541 pa and affordable council tax banding. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; broadband and mobile signal are strong in the area.
Considerations: the flat is small at roughly 500 sq ft and has a single shower room, so it suits buyers who prioritise location and outside space over generous internal square footage. The building is pre-1900 with solid brick walls assumed to lack modern cavity insulation; the EPC rating is D. Those seeking larger floorplates or highest energy efficiency should allow budget for improvements.
