Chulsa Road, London

* Guide Price £400,000 to £425,000*

This bright, well-proportioned three-bedroom flat on Chulsa Road is on the second floor, and its 857 sq ft layout has no wasted space. It sits in a leafy corner of Upper Sydenham, minutes from Crystal Palace Park.

Light is the flat's standout feature. It is dual aspect, so it gets sun from both sides of the day. The reception room, main bedroom and second bedroom face east and catch the morning sun through generous windows. The dining room, kitchen, bathroom, WC and third bedroom face west and are lit through the afternoon and into the evening. Some other key features include off street parking, dedicated bike storage under the building, an attic and to top it off built in storage in the two larger bed rooms!

The reception room (15'9 x 11'1) is the heart of the flat. Double doors open onto a private balcony, so on warm evenings the living space extends outdoors. There is a separate dining room (10'11 x 8'1) for entertaining, and a separate kitchen (8'5 x 7'9) with a window, so cooking never blocks the light. A central hallway ties the rooms together and includes useful built-in storage.

Bedroom one (12'9 x 11'1) is a comfortable double with a large window and plenty of wall space for furniture. Bedroom two (11'1 x 9'7) is another good double, and bedroom three (10'11 x 6'5) works well as a nursery, single room or home office. The family bathroom has a bath with a shower over it and a window, and there is a separate WC.

Penge West (London Overground and Southern), Sydenham (London Overground and Southern) and Crystal Palace stations are each roughly a 10 to 15 minute walk. Penge East, with direct services to London Victoria, is also nearby. Zone 3 transport links and a good bus network make getting into central London easy.

Crystal Palace Triangle, a short journey away, has independent cafés, restaurants, bars, boutiques and an Everyman cinema. Local food markets run at weekends. Penge High Street and Sydenham Road are closer still, with supermarkets, convenience stores, independent shops and neighbourhood pubs and restaurants.

Crystal Palace Park is on the doorstep. It has the famous Victorian dinosaur sculptures, lakes, woodland walks, a maze, a café, a National Sports Centre and there are live music events that take place during the summer! Sydenham Hill Wood, Mayow Park and Dulwich Wood are also close by.

The area has a good choice of nurseries and primary schools, along with well-regarded secondary options. Nearby schools include Kelvin Grove Primary, Adamsrill Primary and Sydenham School, and Sydenham High School (independent) is also close.
