Set within an imposing Victorian mansion on Sydenham Hill, this exceptionally spacious first‑floor conversion offers a rare 1,383 sq ft of period living. The layout includes three double bedrooms, two bathrooms (one en‑suite), a fitted kitchen and a grand 24' x 23' lounge/dining room with high ceilings and bay windows — ideal for family life and entertaining. A small balcony off bedroom three and direct views over mature, lawned communal grounds add outdoor appeal.
Practical strengths include long leasehold security (956 years), share of freehold, off‑street parking plus a separate garage block, and no onward chain for a quicker move. The location sits between Crystal Palace and Dulwich, close to parks, reputable schools and regular rail services to central London, making it well suited to families seeking space and character close to green amenities.
Buyers should note the substantial annual service charge (£5,100 pa) and moderate council tax band. The building’s solid brick construction (period walls likely uninsulated) means energy efficiency improvements or internal insulation may be desirable. Local crime statistics are above average; prospective purchasers may wish to review this in detail.
Overall this is a large, characterful apartment with strong family appeal and clear potential to personalise and modernise. It will suit buyers prioritising space, period features and proximity to Dulwich’s schools and parks, who are comfortable with an active communal maintenance regime and possible retrofit works to improve efficiency.
