Set across three floors of a period conversion, this 913 sq ft three-bedroom flat offers generous living space and strong transport links for a growing family. The reception room retains high Victorian ceilings, a large bay and built-in shelving, while the modern kitchen provides space for everyday dining. Two nearby stations—Denmark Hill and Peckham Rye—give fast routes into central London, and Lucas Gardens is a short walk away for weekend play.
Legally the lease currently shows 48 years remaining, which will be extended to 999 years prior to completion and a 50% share of the freehold will be transferred once the ground-floor flat is sold. Buyers should be aware mortgage lenders commonly refuse loans on properties with short leases until the extension is completed; this is being addressed before completion. Buildings insurance runs at approximately £309.08 per year; there is no separate service charge or ground rent.
Practical points include on-street permit parking only and a single bathroom plus a separate WC for three bedrooms. The property sits in a lively inner-city area with above-average crime rates, excellent mobile and broadband connectivity, and average local deprivation. Overall, this is a well-proportioned, characterful family home with clear legal steps underway to secure long-term tenure and lending eligibility.
