Solid brick walls likely uninsulated; consider retrofit for efficiency
Located near Crystal Palace station, good schools, fast broadband
This well-presented one-bedroom flat occupies 625 sq ft within a Victorian semi-detached building on Anerley Hill. High ceilings and large sash-style windows give the reception room generous natural light and a sense of space. The accommodation includes a modern fitted kitchen, a sizable double bedroom and a substantial terrace — useful extra outdoor space in an inner-city setting.
Practical advantages make this a sensible step onto the property ladder: a very long lease (994 years) and share of freehold, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and no flood risk. Transport links are strong with Crystal Palace station nearby, and several good and outstanding schools are within reach — helpful for planning future resale or letting.
Be clear about running costs and maintenance: the property sits in an older solid-brick building (likely no cavity insulation) and the average service charge is £1,133. The wider area shows higher social deprivation indicators, although local amenities, shops and green space are close by. Buyers should consider potential insulation or retrofit work to improve energy efficiency and heating costs over time.
Overall this apartment combines period character with ready-to-move-in presentation and a very long lease, making it well suited to first-time buyers seeking a bright, centrally connected home with outdoor space.
