A ground-floor one-bedroom flat with its own private rear garden and an allocated parking space — rare for a property of this size in SE9. The L-shaped living/dining room opens through patio doors onto a well-kept garden with side access, giving a sense of indoor-outdoor space that will suit a single buyer or couple. The fitted kitchen includes key appliances and the bathroom has a walk-in shower and contemporary fittings. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working and streaming.
Practical details include double glazing (installed post-2002), electric room heaters and a modest EPC rating of D. The property is leasehold with 88 years unexpired and a ground rent of £75 per year; prospective buyers should check long-term mortgage and lease-extension implications. Council tax band D and an above-average local crime rate are factual factors to consider for budgeting and safety.
Well maintained since construction in the 1980s, the flat presents a straightforward purchase with immediate availability and scope to modernise cosmetic finishes to personal taste. The private garden, outlook over open field and single allocated parking space are clear value-drivers for buyers prioritising outdoor space and parking in a major conurbation setting. Close local schools include several rated Good or Outstanding, adding appeal for those planning family life in the area.
This property suits first-time buyers or downsizers looking for a manageable, low-maintenance home with outdoor space and parking. It also offers short-term rental potential for investors, though the lease length and EPC rating should factor into investment returns.
