A compact two-bedroom first-floor flat offering an affordable London foothold in the heart of Ladywell Village. The bright reception room and private rear garden make the most of 490 sq ft, creating comfortable indoor-outdoor living rare at this price. The property is chain free and comes with a long lease, simplifying purchase for a first-time buyer.
Practical positives include gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and a low Council Tax Band B. Excellent transport links from Ladywell, Lewisham and Brockley put central London within easy reach, while nearby Hilly Fields and strong local schools suit young families or commuters.
The building dates from the 1930s–40s and has solid brick walls with no known added insulation, so there is potential to improve energy efficiency and reduce running costs. The flat’s layout is compact and the rooms are modestly sized — buyers should expect limited storage and living space compared with larger homes.
Overall this is a pragmatic buy-to-live or entry-level investment opportunity: good location, private garden and long lease offset the modest internal floor area and likely improvement needs. Important details such as lease length and any recent glazing or insulation works should be checked and confirmed before proceeding.
