Description

A cracking one bed first pad or downsize. With fetching and far-reaching views, it sits on the third (top) floor of a low-rise, purpose-built block that's close to both Sydenham and Forest Hill stations (walk 10 and 15 minutes respectively), for Windrush and regular rail services.

Sydenham Wells Park is also local, as are the fast-gentrifying high street areas on both Kirkdale and Sydenham Road. You're also close to leafy Forest Hill and Dulwich. Leasehold.

The flat measures in at over 500 square feet and it's been really well designed with plenty of storage, and a huge reception room. At the top of the stairs there's a door to the balcony area where you'll find your front door. Open into the hall and the bathroom sits off to your right. It has a neat white suite, white tiles and white walls, plus a frosted and double-glazed window (the flat is double-glazed throughout).

Off to your left of the hall for the eat-in kitchen with a large window, more white square tiles, and fitted wall and base units. Large built-in floor to ceiling cupboards serve this room, and there's another for cleaning bits or whatever, in the hall. The reception room offers wonderful west-facing views and is roughly 13 feet by 14 feet. The bedroom completes the tour. It's a double with a built-in wardrobe and more top views.

Kirkdale, Sydenham Road and Forest Hill's Dartmouth Road are busy with popular independent cafes, restaurants and little shops. Since the Overground line became a firm fixture in 2012, the pressure's really been building in Sydenham with lots of buyers realising there's great value for money to be had alongside the great connections.

Local leisure options are strong, with Sydenham Wells Park really close, and Crystal Palace Park, Sydenham Woods and Horniman Gardens also nearby. Local indoor leisure options include Forest Hill Pools and The National Sports Centre within Crystal Palace Park. We've already mentioned the easy walk to both Sydenham and Forest Hill Stations; that's the commute sorted. The 176 bus (picked up on Kirkdale) is also worth a mention, delivering you to Tottenham Court Road.
