This well-presented one-bedroom flat occupies a second-floor conversion in a red-brick period building on Lomond Grove, offering bright rooms, high ceilings and tasteful period detailing. The reception room and large sash windows deliver strong natural light while bespoke wardrobes and quality finishes (Mandarin Stone tiling, Farrow & Ball tones) give the home a refined, move‑in-ready feel.
The kitchen/diner has eat-in space, butcher-block counters, patterned stone tiling and a useful pantry; the bathroom includes a laundry cupboard with plumbing. Communal forecourt/car park and mature trees create a sheltered, leafy aspect to the building and the flat sits within easy walking distance of Denmark Hill station and numerous bus routes.
Practical aspects are straightforward: 144 years remaining on the lease, mains gas boiler and radiators, and an average-sized footprint of approximately 597 sq ft. Service charge and running costs are material to consider — an annual service charge of about £2,004 and Council Tax Band B (described as cheap) apply.
Notable drawbacks are factual and should influence buyer choice: the building’s solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, which can affect heat retention and energy bills. There’s no private garden and the local area rates as deprived, though transport links, local schools and Camberwell’s amenities compensate for many buyers. This flat will suit buyers seeking characterful, central south London living with relatively low immediate renovation needs but some longer-term energy‑efficiency work possible.
