A chain-free ground-floor studio with private entrance, offering straightforward access to Kidbrooke station and central Greenwich amenities. The compact layout includes a lounge/bedroom, modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and a bathroom—suitable as an entry-level home or rental unit. Communal gardens front and rear add outdoor space without maintenance responsibilities.
Practical details matter: the flat totals about 323 sq ft, is leasehold with c.96 years remaining, and carries an average service charge of £1,199 and a small ground rent of £10. Built in the 1950s–60s from solid brick, the block has double glazing (install date unknown) and mains gas boiler/radiator heating; the building may benefit from further insulation or energy-efficiency upgrades.
Location is a key strength. Kidbrooke station is within easy walking distance with fast links to central London (London Bridge c.16 minutes), and local supermarkets, shops and leisure facilities are nearby. The property sits opposite a playground and close to Cator Park and Blackheath Village, giving a mix of green space and local cafes.
Be candid about drawbacks: the flat is small, in an area with above-average crime and broader local deprivation indicators, and the mid‑century construction offers limited built-in insulation. Buyers should budget for possible energy improvements and confirm service charge details and parking permit costs with the council. For first-time buyers or investors wanting a low-entry purchase close to transport, this is a practical, chain-free option.
