Summary - FLAT 1, 54, HIGH STREET SE20 7HB
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Newly renovated, move-in ready flat close to both Penge stations.
Ground-floor, one-bedroom conversion in a listed building
A bright, ground-floor one-bedroom conversion in a handsome listed building on Penge High Street. The flat has been newly renovated with a modern open-plan kitchen, contemporary bathroom and built-in bedroom wardrobes — ready to move into and ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a low-maintenance starter home.
The location is a strong practical selling point: roughly a 5-minute walk to Penge East and 7 minutes to Penge West (estimated), with shops, cafes and Crystal Palace Park nearby. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband make the flat well suited to home working or streaming.
Practical costs and constraints are set out clearly. The lease has about 111 years remaining; annual service charge is approximately £1,800 with a ground rent of £250. As a listed building, any alterations may require listed-building consent and could complicate refurbishment plans. The home sits within an area of relative deprivation, so local social and economic challenges should be considered alongside the benefits of transport links and amenities.
Internally the flat is compact at about 495 sq ft. The bedroom has a lower-than-average ceiling and is cosy rather than spacious. Construction is solid brick without assumed cavity insulation, so buyers sensitive to thermal performance should factor potential insulation or heating costs into their budgeting. Council tax is modest (Band B).
