This two-bedroom first-floor flat on London Road offers a practical, well-proportioned home in an established SE23 neighbourhood. At around 629 sq ft, the layout suits a couple, small family or buy-to-let investor seeking straightforward living with good transport links and local shops close by. The reception opens onto a private balcony, adding outdoor space uncommon at this size.
The property is ready to occupy but shows signs of typical post-war construction: solid brick walls with no assumed cavity insulation and double glazing installed before 2002. These factors present sensible upgrade opportunities (insulation, window replacement, cosmetic modernisation) that would improve comfort and energy efficiency.
Leasehold details are buyer-important: 83 years remaining and a below-average service charge of £200 per month. Council tax is low and broadband and mobile connectivity are strong — practical positives for working professionals and landlords. There may be additional fees for leasehold documentation; purchasers should budget for survey and checks before committing.
Overall, this is a value-focused flat in an affluent, well-connected part of London. It combines immediate usability with clear potential to add value through moderate renovation or targeted improvements to heating, glazing and insulation.
