Summary - COUNTISBURY HOUSE FLAT 42 CRESCENT WOOD ROAD LONDON SE26 6SB
3 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free three-bedroom with long lease near Sydenham Hill station.
Sixth-floor flat with lift and balcony offering wide London views
A chain-free three-bedroom flat on the sixth floor, offered for sale by auction and priced to sell. The property includes a balcony with wide London views, a lift in the block and good on-street parking. The long lease (178 years) makes this suitable for buyers seeking security without immediate lease concerns. EPC rating E and mains gas heating are noted.
Located on the Upper Sydenham / Dulwich border, the flat is a short walk from Sydenham Hill station (services to London Victoria) and sits close to strong local schools and amenities. The accommodation is practical and spacious with plentiful storage, a separate living room and one bathroom — a simple layout that will appeal to investors or buyers planning light upgrades.
There are some material points to accept: the building is a 1950s–60s system-built construction with assumed lack of wall insulation; the EPC is E and the flat may benefit from energy and cosmetic improvements. Sale will follow the Modern/Traditional auction process: immediate exchange, completion within 28 days, a non-refundable 10% deposit on exchange and a reservation fee of 4.5% (minimum £6,600) payable by the buyer in addition to the purchase price. Buyers must review the Buyer Information Pack before bidding and should account for buyer fees when budgeting.
For investors this presents straightforward rental or refurb potential in a well-connected area; for owner-occupiers it offers a long lease, lift access and a balcony with views but will likely need energy and cosmetic investment to reach modern standards.
