Summary - 42, ROYSTON ROAD SE20 7QN
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Light-filled period living with excellent transport connections.
Two double bedrooms with high ceilings and large windows
A bright, well-presented two-bedroom Victorian conversion on Royston Road, offering generous rooms and period character ideal for first-time buyers. High ceilings and large windows give the lounge a spacious, airy feel around a decorative fireplace, while recent updates include a modern kitchen with deep blue cabinetry and double glazing throughout. The flat comes with a share of freehold and an EPC rating of C.
Practical strengths include gas central heating, good broadband and excellent mobile signal, and very convenient transport links — Kent House rail connections and local buses are within easy walking distance. The accommodation is a comfortable 736 sq ft, arranged to make most of the footprint with a distinct reception, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Buyers should note there is no private garden shown and the building’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated (as built). The area records higher-than-average local crime, which may concern some purchasers, and the property is on a shared freehold basis so communal decision-making applies. Room sizes and layout suit first-time buyers or investors seeking a rentable central location, but any further thermal upgrades or major reconfiguration would need additional work and cost.
Overall, this flat offers a well-located, characterful home with immediate move-in appeal and scope to add value through modest improvements. It will particularly suit buyers prioritising location and living space over outdoor amenity.
