Light-filled top-floor conversion set within a handsome Victorian terrace, this one-bedroom flat offers surprisingly generous internal space (approx. 814 sq ft) and tasteful contemporary finishes. The large reception room and well-fitted kitchen create a comfortable living environment; built-in eaves storage and a roomy double bedroom make this a practical home for singles or couples. Private off-street parking is a useful rare perk for the area, and fast broadband plus excellent mobile signal suit home-working.
The property sits within easy walking distance of Beckenham Junction Station and the wide open spaces of Beckenham Place Park, giving a good balance of commuter convenience and local green space. Double glazing and a modern gas boiler provide reasonable thermal comfort, though the building dates from the early 20th century and external walls are assumed to be solid brick without insulation — further insulation work could reduce running costs.
Buyers should note the high local crime statistic flagged for the area; prospective purchasers ought to satisfy themselves about security and insurance implications. The flat is sold as a share of freehold and is move-in ready, but the top-floor / conversion layout includes areas with lower ceilings (attic-style roof windows) that may not suit everyone. Overall, this is a roomy, characterful one-bedroom with strong transport and leisure links and clear potential to personalise further.
