Wheathill Road, London, SE20

This one-bedroom house in Byron Close offers an opportunity to own a freehold property with a private garden and off-street parking. Measuring 41.8 sq m (450 sq ft), the property provides living space across two floors and has the potential to add value through cosmetic updating.

On the ground floor, the living/reception room (2.97m x 2.94m) is open plan to the kitchen (3.99m x 2.08m), which is fitted with wooden cabinetry, granite-effect worktops, and space for white goods. The kitchen has a window and door leading to the rear garden, providing good natural light.

Upstairs, the bedroom (3.99m x 3.31m) offers space for a double bed and storage, with tropical-inspired green wallpaper creating a distinctive look. The bathroom features a three-piece suite with a shower over the bath.

The property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating, and neutral décor throughout most rooms. The garden provides a low-maintenance outdoor space with a patio area.

While some updating would enhance the property's appeal, it represents an opportunity for first-time buyers seeking a freehold house rather than a leasehold flat, with no service charges to consider.

Byron Close is well-positioned for transport links, with Anerley Station nearby, offering access to the Overground and direct trains to London Bridge during peak hours. Norwood Junction is easily accessible and offers a fast direct train to London Bridge.

Crystal Palace Park is nearby, with the nearest entrance on Thicket Road leading to the boating lake and dinosaur sculptures. The park features Brown & Green Café and hosts a food market every Sunday, plus a weekly 5k park run.

For everyday shopping, Penge High Street is within walking distance, while nearby Anerley Road offers local businesses, including Café Chic, Bob Wines, and Chatsworth Bakehouse. Crystal Palace Triangle is also easily accessible, home to gastro pubs, an Everyman cinema, and the weekly farmers market on Haynes Lane.
