Compact, long-lease flat with parking and easy access to local transport.
Bright reception with dining space
A bright one-bedroom first-floor flat set within a 1970s block in Crystal Palace, offering a compact yet practical 526 sq ft layout. The reception room has space to dine and benefits from natural light; the property includes a separate modern kitchen, a generously sized double bedroom and a stylish bathroom. Off-street residents’ parking and a long lease (116 years remaining) add practical value for buyers.
The flat presents contemporary interiors but also shows 1970s characteristics — notably lower ceiling heights and brickwork windows — so buyers should check finish and ceiling height if tall ceilings are important. Service charge and ground rent are payable (service charge circa £1,668 pa; ground rent £10), and the property will suit purchasers who want a ready-to-live-in home with scope to personalise rather than a large renovation project.
Location is a key selling point: moments from Crystal Palace amenities and within easy reach of Gipsy Hill and Crystal Palace stations, with a wide choice of shops, bars and restaurants nearby. Local schools include several rated Good and Outstanding, making the area suitable for buyers planning families. Note the area records above-average crime and relatively high deprivation — viewings will clarify whether the local environment meets your expectations.
Overall this is a straightforward one-bedroom with sensible running costs, a long lease and parking — a practical step onto the property ladder or a compact buy-to-let with decent transport links. Verify broadband, double-glazing install dates and communal condition at survey stage.
