A bright, well-proportioned three-bedroom top-floor apartment on the borders of Forest Hill, Honor Oak and East Dulwich, ideal for commuting families and professionals. The reception room opens onto a private south‑east facing balcony with leafy, elevated views across mature trees and a city skyline glimpse. Engineered wood flooring, a modern fitted kitchen with exposed brick detail and plentiful natural light give the flat a contemporary, comfortable feel.
Practical benefits include a private garden, off‑street parking, double glazing, and a long lease (178 years on completion). The layout is straightforward single‑storey living with ample hallway storage and a generous reception room — well suited to everyday family life or those seeking an investment let in a popular commuter area.
Buyers should note some material limitations: there is a single bathroom for three double bedrooms, broadband speeds in the area are reported slow, and the block’s glazing was installed before 2002. Service charges and a small ground rent apply (SC £1,311.42 pa; GR £10 pa). The building dates from the 1950s–60s and walls are likely solid brick with no added insulation, which could mean higher heating costs unless upgraded.
Overall this apartment offers immediate move‑in comfort, strong rental/commuter appeal and clear scope for targeted upgrades (insulation, glazing, or broadband) to increase comfort and longer‑term value.
