Spacious modern one-bedroom close to Kidbrooke station and village amenities.
Third-floor one-bedroom, 614 sq ft, lift access
This bright one-bedroom apartment in Kidbrooke Village offers contemporary, low-maintenance living for a first-time buyer or investor. Set on the third floor with lift access, it overlooks private communal gardens and includes a private balcony, integrated kitchen appliances and ample built-in storage. The layout is generous for a one-bedroom at 614 sq ft, giving clear separation between living and sleeping spaces.
Practical benefits include a very long lease (995 years), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and access to on-site amenities such as a communal garden, a residents’ gym, and 24/7 concierge. David Lloyd’s full leisure centre — pool, gym and spa — is a short walk across the road, and local shops, supermarkets and regular rail services from Kidbrooke station offer straightforward commuting into central London.
Costs and constraints are straightforward: the property is leasehold with an average service charge around £2,400 per year and main heating supplied via a community scheme. The local area scores as economically deprived and records average crime levels, which may matter to some buyers; nearby excellent schools and village amenities help balance this.
Overall this is a modern, well-specified one-bedroom with strong transport links and everyday conveniences close by. It suits a commuter, first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a low-maintenance home with long lease security, but budget for service charges and communal heating arrangements.
