Set on a desirable road in Bromley, this two-bedroom Victorian conversion offers generous room sizes and period character across approximately 953 sq ft. High ceilings and a large living/dining room create bright, flexible living space for a couple or small family. The apartment includes two double bedrooms, fitted kitchen and a three-piece bathroom.
The flat needs modernisation throughout, giving a clear opportunity to add value through updating the kitchen, bathroom and finishes. Practical strengths include a long lease (125 years remaining), double glazing, mains gas central heating and fast broadband/ excellent mobile signal. Service charge is relatively high at £3,874 per year; there is no ground rent.
Location is a strong selling point: a short walk to Bickley Station, nearby parks and several well-rated primary and secondary schools. Buyers should note an above-average local crime score and that some building fabric (solid brick walls) likely lacks cavity insulation, so buyers may want to budget for energy improvements and cosmetic refurbishment.
