Situated on Kingsthorpe Road, this one-bedroom first-floor flat forms part of an Edwardian semi-detached building and extends to approximately 657 sq ft (61 sq m). A new 125-year lease will be granted, and the property includes a rear garden — a rare outside space for a flat at this price point. Sydenham rail station is about 0.3 miles away, and local shops, parks and a wide range of amenities are within easy walking distance.
The accommodation requires renovation and is presented as a fixer-upper: the living room shows period features but will need updating to modern standards. The flat will be sold at auction (vendor will not accept pre-auction offers), so buyers should allow time to arrange funds or mortgage advice ahead of the sale. There is no significant flood risk and broadband and mobile signal in the area are good.
This property suits a buyer looking for value and scope to add equity — whether a first-time purchaser prepared to renovate or an investor targeting rental income in an inner-city location. Council and community services are local, schools nearby have generally good Ofsted ratings, and Mayow Park is close by for outdoor space. Note that the immediate area scores as more deprived in local measures, and crime levels are average, factors to consider when assessing long-term plans.
