Leasehold with 93 years remaining — review mortgageability

Local area: convenient amenities but crime above average, area deprived
Bright, chain-free one-bedroom garden maisonette in New Cross offering straightforward access to central London. The flat sits on a quiet, tree-lined street yet is moments from New Cross Gate and Queens Road Peckham stations, cafés, bars and independent shops — ideal for a first-time buyer seeking transport links and local amenities.
The property includes a generous double bedroom, an open-plan kitchen/reception with contemporary fittings and patio doors leading to a private garden. At about 448 sq ft the layout is compact but practical; modern touches in the kitchen and living area make it move-in ready for many buyers.
Practicalities to note: the flat is leasehold with 93 years remaining, low service charge (£50pa) and very low ground rent (£10pa). EPC C and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators are in place, and council tax is very cheap — factors that keep running costs down.
Buyers should be aware the building is a traditional solid-brick terrace with assumed no wall insulation and the wider area shows higher-than-average crime and relative deprivation. There’s clear potential to add value through targeted improvements (insulation, cosmetic updates), but those works and the sub-100-year lease should be factored into any purchase decision.
