Bright, compact and well-located, this one-bedroom apartment suits a first-time buyer seeking easy commuting and local amenities. The open-plan living room and kitchen make the most of the 444 sq ft, while fitted wardrobes in the double bedroom add useful storage. Secured gated parking is a practical bonus in a town-centre location.
Practical running costs are mixed: a below-average service charge of £500 per year helps keep communal costs low, and the lease has 116 years remaining. However, the property is heated by electric room heaters and has an EPC rating of D, which may mean higher energy bills than modern gas-heated homes.
Buyers should note a relatively high ground rent of £1,260 per year and that local crime levels are above average. These are important factors for budgeting and long-term ownership. Nearby Bromley High Street, Bromley South station and several well-regarded schools make this a convenient base for work and family life.
