Summary - COLLEGE MANOR, 49 - 55 FLAT 12 FARQUHAR ROAD LONDON SE19 1SL
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free one-bedroom with extended lease near Crystal Palace Triangle and park.
Top-floor one-bedroom apartment, chain free
A bright one-bedroom top-floor apartment in the heart of Crystal Palace, offered chain free and ready for immediate occupation. The extended lease (158 years on completion) and recent kitchen upgrade reduce early costs for a first-time buyer or investor. Neutral decor and solid wood-look flooring create a fresh blank canvas to personalise.
Practical features include loft storage access, triple glazing, sound and heat insulation benefits, and a modern bathroom with a picture window. The building sits within well-maintained communal grounds with planted seating, and both Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill stations are within easy reach. Crystal Palace Park, independent shops and leisure amenities are moments away.
Be aware of a few material points: heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives; the property is leasehold with an average service charge of £1,494pa and a ground rent of £37.50pa. The apartment is an average-sized 506 sq ft, top-floor layout with some low-ceiling attic space, so head-height is limited in the loft area.
Overall this apartment suits a buyer seeking a well-located, low-hassle purchase with good local amenities and transport links. It’s especially suitable for first-time purchasers or investors wanting a straightforward, chain-free purchase and modest ongoing charges relative to central London alternatives.
