This bright two-bedroom flat on Sydenham Road offers around 675 sq ft of well-distributed living space and a rare share of freehold with 161 years remaining on the lease. Located on the third floor, the apartment benefits from a south-facing aspect, large windows and a private balcony that bring strong natural light through the open-plan living area.
The kitchen and bathroom are contemporary and well-fitted, with integrated appliances and a shower-over-bath plus a window for ventilation. Both bedrooms are good proportions for the size of the flat, with the second bedroom suited to home‑working or guests. Unrestricted on-street parking is available nearby.
Practical considerations include electric storage heating, double glazing installed before 2002 and solid brick walls likely without modern insulation — factors to bear in mind for running costs and future retrofit. The EPC is E. Annual service charge is £999.96 (approximately £83.33/month) and council tax is described as affordable.
The flat is a ten-minute walk from Sydenham Station with useful Overground and Southern connections into central London. Local amenities include independent cafés, markets and parks such as Mayow Park and Crystal Palace Park, while nearby schools have a strong Ofsted profile. Note the location has above-average crime statistics and the wider area shows levels of deprivation; buyers should weigh local community benefits alongside these factors.
