A compact, well-presented one-bedroom first-floor flat in Perry Vale, offered with a long lease and contemporary fixtures. The open-plan reception and modern rustic kitchen make efficient use of the 369 sq ft footprint, with engineered wood floors, exposed brick details and good natural light from sash-style windows. The property suits a single occupant or couple looking for an affordable route into SE23 or a straightforward buy-to-let.
Transport links and local amenities are a strong selling point: Forest Hill, Sydenham and Honor Oak Park stations are all nearby for quick journeys into central London. Local green spaces include Mayow Park, Horniman Gardens and Blythe Hill Fields, and a busy parade of shops, cafés and restaurants serves day-to-day needs. Council Tax is described as low, and flood risk is nil.
Buyers should note the compact size and lack of private outdoor space — the flat is small and best suited to those comfortable with limited room or seeking rental yield rather than family living. Broadband speeds are reported as slow, and the building has solid-brick walls with assumed no insulation, which may affect heating efficiency. Annual service charge and ground rent are modest at approximately £1,279 and £50 respectively, and the lease has 108 years remaining.
Overall this is an economical, move-in-ready option in a desirable SE23 pocket. It offers clear rental and first-time buyer appeal but carries practical compromises (size, no garden, insulation and broadband) that should be considered before viewing.
