Well-presented lower-ground one-bedroom near Crystal Palace Park and local amenities.
Lower-ground one-bedroom flat with bright reception room
A bright lower-ground flat that pairs modern finishes with period character in a desirable, leafy pocket of SE26. The reception room receives good natural light despite its lower-ground position, and the separate kitchen is contemporary and practical — ideal for everyday living. The double bedroom is roomy for the size, and the bathroom is sleek and up-to-date.
Living here offers direct access to Crystal Palace Park and is an easy walk to shops, cafés and transport links around Crystal Palace and Sydenham. Triple glazing and electric underfloor heating make the flat comfortable and energy-efficient for an older building, while the 584 sq ft layout gives a sensible one‑bed footprint for a couple or single buyer.
Important practical points are straightforward: the property is leasehold with 85 years remaining, a service charge of around £1,600 pa and a small ground rent of £150 pa. The building has solid brick walls with no assumed cavity insulation and slightly lower ceiling heights in parts — factors to note if you’re prioritising maximum thermal performance or high ceilings.
This flat suits a first‑time buyer or downsizer seeking a well-presented one-bedroom home near green space and good local amenities, or an investor after a straightforward long-term let (check lease and lender criteria). The overall condition is modern and move‑in ready, with potential to personalise in time.
