Well-presented, chain-free one bed near two stations and local amenities.
Ground-floor one-bedroom conversion in a listed Victorian building
A bright ground-floor one-bedroom conversion set within an imposing listed Victorian building on Penge High Street. The flat has been updated throughout with a modern open-plan kitchen, contemporary bathroom and built-in bedroom wardrobes — presented chain free and ready to move into.
Practical benefits include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and very short walks to Penge East and Penge West stations (approx. 5–7 minutes). The 495 sq ft layout works well for a single buyer or couple seeking convenient transport links and local shops, cafes and parks nearby including Crystal Palace Park.
Important points to note: this is a leasehold property with 111 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £1,800 and a ground rent of £250. Listed status means external alterations and some works may require consent and could be more complicated or costly.
The flat sits in an inner-city area classified as deprived with average local crime. Internal features include some low ceilings in the bedroom and traditionally solid brick walls (likely no cavity insulation), so heating efficiency may be lower than modern builds. Overall, this is an attractive, well-presented starter home with clear commuting and local-amenity appeal, best suited to buyers comfortable with leasehold and listed-building considerations.
