Here is what the owner said:

I have fully renovated the flat since moving in. New kitchen, bathroom, flooring, skirting, boiler, windows, doors and decorating. I like that the flat is quiet, in walking distance of two amazingly linked train stations in Catford and Honor Oak, can get into London Bridge in 11 minutes. Honor Oak has seen significant investment with lovely shops into the area.
