Set within a late‑Victorian terrace in Felling, this first‑floor, three‑bed flat offers compact, well‑presented accommodation at an entry‑level price. The layout includes a bright lounge with period chimney breast, a narrow fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, three bedrooms and a three‑piece bathroom. Gas central heating and double glazing (installed post‑2002) help keep running costs low. The property is offered chain free and could suit a first‑time buyer or buy‑to‑let investor seeking immediate occupancy or rental income.
Practical benefits include excellent local transport links (close to Felling Metro) and a range of nearby amenities, plus very low council tax (Band A). On‑street parking and a shared rear yard are provided, but there is no private garden. Internal rooms are generally average in size though two bedrooms are compact, so the flat suits those comfortable with efficient urban living or those wanting to maximise rental yield.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold — prospective buyers should confirm lease length and any service/ground rent obligations with a solicitor. The area scores high for crime and high deprivation indices; buyers should factor local market conditions into their plans. The building is stone‑built with assumed uninsulated solid walls which may affect heating efficiency and future refurbishment costs.
Overall this is a budget‑priced, characterful Victorian flat that will appeal to first‑time buyers wanting a straightforward move‑in or investors seeking a three‑bed rental in a commutable location. Some modernisation or insulation improvements could add value and reduce ongoing energy costs.
