Summary - COUNTISBURY HOUSE FLAT 36 CRESCENT WOOD ROAD LONDON SE26 6SB
3 bed 1 bath Apartment
Affordable three-bedroom, long lease, close to Crystal Palace Park — ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Chain-free three-double-bedroom flat, 785 sqft
A chain-free, three-double-bedroom apartment in Countisbury House offering 785 sqft of practical living in Upper Sydenham. The flat sits on the fifth floor with lift access and benefits from two balconies, allocated communal parking and fast FTTP broadband — useful for homeworking or letting. The long lease (179 years) and council tax band C make it straightforward for first-time buyers or investors.
The apartment has bright rooms and double glazing that contribute to a comfortable feel, with pleasant views over communal green areas and immediate access to Crystal Palace Park and local amenities. Transport links are within easy walking distance, including Sydenham Hill station, and nearby schools are well regarded, which helps rental and resale appeal.
Notable practical considerations: heating is by electric storage heaters and the EPC is rated D, so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. The service charge is approximately £2,937.22 per year and the accommodation is described as compact — buyers should expect modest room sizes and some dated internal finishes that may need updating.
For a buyer seeking an affordable route into South East London or an investor seeking a lettable, well-located flat, this property offers clear upside through modernisation and long-term lease security. Viewings will suit those prioritising location, transport, and green space over turnkey condition.
