This top-floor one-bedroom flat on Prince Henry Road offers bright, double-aspect living in a mid-20th-century purpose-built block. The reception room is large enough for lounge and dining, and a balcony provides outside space. A modern fitted kitchen and contemporary bathroom make the property move-in ready for many buyers.
Practical details suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a compact London home: the flat measures about 541 sq ft, has double glazing (install date unknown) and electric boiler-fed radiators. Charlton Station is approximately 0.86 miles away, and local schools include well-reviewed primary and secondary options within easy reach. Charlton Park and nearby sports facilities add outdoor leisure choice.
Buyers should note key constraints: the property is leasehold with roughly 89–90 years remaining and an annual service charge of about £1,412; there is no reported annual ground rent. Broadband speeds are slow locally, crime levels are above average, and the wider area is classified as very deprived. The building’s solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, which could mean higher heating costs and potential retrofit work.
Overall this is a well-presented, compact top-floor flat with good natural light and sensible communal costs, offering clear potential for a buyer prepared to accept its urban-location trade-offs and modest retrofit considerations.
