Set over two levels, this spacious three-bedroom period maisonette offers large rooms, high ceilings and a private rear garden in a quiet cul-de-sac just 200 yards from Sydenham’s hub. The split-level layout gives a house-like feel with its own front door, two bathrooms and generous room proportions that suit family living or a renovation project with strong uplift potential.
The property requires modernisation throughout — cosmetic and systems work will be needed to bring it up to contemporary standards. Built before 1900 with solid brick walls (likely uninsulated) and an EPC rating of D, improvements such as insulation, modern glazing and updating the kitchen and bathrooms will both increase comfort and add value.
Practical details: the flat is leasehold with 87 years remaining, mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators, no flood risk, average broadband and excellent mobile signal. Council tax band C is affordable, but note the local crime level is high, which buyers should factor in when assessing security measures and neighbourhood suitability.
For families or buyers seeking a period home to personalise, this is a rare opportunity to secure generous living space and a large private garden close to good schools and local amenities. With some work and a clear plan, the property could become a bright, characterful family home or a high-return renovation project.
