Set within a handsome Victorian semi‑detached building on Northbrook Road, this first‑floor conversion offers generous rooms and classic period character. High ceilings, large sash windows and original timber floors create a bright, airy living space that feels larger than a typical one‑bed flat. The reception and bedroom are both notably spacious, making the apartment comfortable for a single occupant or couple.
The flat is chain free with 147 years remaining on the lease and no annual ground rent, which simplifies purchase and keeps running costs predictable. It sits close to Hither Green station (about a six‑minute walk through Manor Park) with fast connections to London Bridge and central destinations — ideal for commuters. Broadband and mobile signal are both strong in the area.
Practical points to note: this is a leasehold conversion with communal garden access rather than a private garden. The building’s solid brick fabric likely has limited insulation and the kitchen and fittings could benefit from modernisation to improve energy efficiency and contemporary convenience. Crime in the immediate area is above average, so purchasers should review local data and security measures.
Overall, the flat suits first‑time buyers looking for a large, characterful one‑bed near excellent transport links, or buy‑to‑let investors seeking a well‑proportioned rental unit with refurbishment upside. The combination of period features and scope to upgrade offers clear potential to add value.
