A freshly refurbished one-bedroom ground-floor retirement flat in Cedar Close, presented ready to move into. The layout maximises natural light and includes a private ground-floor balcony for outdoor space without garden upkeep. Long lease (approx. 214 years) and chain-free sale provide ownership certainty for downsizers.
The development is quiet and designed for over-55s, with a resident manager on site and easy walking distance to Dulwich Village, local shops, and both West Dulwich and Tulse Hill stations for fast Zone 1 access. Nearby green spaces and cultural attractions suit an active retired lifestyle.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: the property is small (approx. 423 sq ft) and heated by electric storage heaters, which can be costly compared with gas. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow, and the development’s service charge is approximately £2,984 per year. Crime levels in the area are above average — consider visiting at different times to assess local feel.
This flat will suit a single retiree or couple seeking a low-maintenance, centrally located home with long-term security and modern finishes, provided they are comfortable with electric heating, service charges, and the limited internal space.
