Large windows and hardwood floors create an airy, modern feel that suits a single occupant or couple seeking a convenient London base. The block includes a communal swimming pool and gardens — uncommon extras for a city flat.
Transport links are good: regular buses and Sydenham station within a reasonable walk provide direct rail into central London, while local shops and leisure facilities are nearby. The neighbourhood is inner-city cosmopolitan with a strong presence of tech professionals, supporting rental demand and future resale prospects.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with an annual service charge of about £2,036 and a ground rent of £96. The building appears well maintained, but the higher-than-average service charge is a material cost to factor into running expenses and potential rental yields.
