Set on the top floor of a locally listed Georgian-style building in the Mavelstone Road Conservation Area, this newly refurbished three-bedroom apartment blends period character with contemporary fittings. High ceilings and large dual-aspect reception rooms give expansive living space, while the kitchen/diner and master ensuite deliver modern convenience. The apartment includes a private entrance, substantial basement storage and a long lease/share of freehold.
Outside, the property benefits from a rare private 100ft rear garden, a newly built summer house with power and light ideal for a home office or gym, a private roof terrace off bedroom two with far-reaching views, and a share of the garage with an electric charger. The location is family-friendly with highly rated schools nearby and under a mile from Chislehurst and Bickley stations.
Practical points to note: the building’s locally listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate future works. Service charges run at approximately £3,600pa and council tax is above average. The building’s timber-frame construction is noted as having no original insulation (assumed), which may be relevant for long-term running costs despite recent renovation.
This apartment suits families or professionals seeking generous, characterful living close to good schools and transport links, who value private outdoor space and a ready-to-move-in home but are comfortable with listed-building constraints and ongoing service charges.
