A well-presented first-floor split-level maisonette marrying period character with contemporary design. The flat offers two double bedrooms, a private balcony and a share of freehold — a practical starter home or buy-to-let in a conservation area setting. The layout feels light and modern, with double glazing and decent room proportions across 631 sq ft.
Location is a clear selling point: situated in the Thorpe Conservation Area with easy access to Sydenham station and nearby Mayow Park for outdoor space. Local amenities are comprehensive — shops, cafés, a fitness centre and regular buses are all on the doorstep — and broadband and mobile signals are strong, which suits remote working.
Important considerations are stated plainly. The neighbourhood records higher crime and broader area deprivation indicators than average, which may affect resale perception and insurance. The lease has about 98 years remaining; shared freehold reduces some long-term ground-rent concerns but buyers should check enfranchisement and service arrangements. Council tax is described as affordable.
This property will suit first-time buyers or couples seeking a ready-to-live-in conversion with period charm and transport links. It also offers straightforward rental potential for investors who accept the local market context. Physically the home appears in good decorative order, but purchasers should factor in routine maintenance and standard building insurance and service contributions for a shared freehold building.
