Description
A quiet, top-floor one-bedroom flat with a share of freehold in a magnificent, detached period building, in a truly brilliant location on one of Crystal Palace’s prettiest roads, close to the triangle.
This flat is incredibly quiet and peaceful, despite its central location. It’s on the top floor of a beautiful period property, so there’s no one above you, and although you’re so close to the gastro-pubs, bars and restaurants of Crystal Palace Gatestone Road is a very quiet road.
There’s no onward chain, and with no service charges or ground rent and a share of freehold, it feels like it should be a straightforward purchase. Step through the front door, and there’s a useful hall where you can store your coats, shoes and bike. As you head up the stairs, the light floods in.
The layout works well, with a good-sized living room, a double bedroom and a bright fitted kitchen with a large window that lets in the light in. The high ceilings give the large living space a loft apartment feel, as well as the bedroom which leads nicely into the bathroom with its bath and separate shower with glass tiles. There may be scope to open up the kitchen to the reception, and create a much larger space, which would definitely give it that “loft” feel.
Let’s talk about the area. You really are in the heart of Crystal Palace here. Gatestone Road is temptingly close (it’s about 100 metres away!) to Haynes Lane food market where you can spend your Saturday picking up the best fresh produce from local suppliers. Two of your local pubs are The Alma and The White Hart, which is lucky because they serve up some of the finest food around. You can pop to Brown and Green café for brunch (if you can choose between the breakfast nacho bowl or vegan pancakes).
Locals are quite rightly proud of their independent shops and if you’re looking to furnish the flat you can spend the day browsing for vintage and mid-century gems. There’s an Everyman Cinema on the triangle, as well as lots of clothes and gift shops.
If you’re craving green space, you don’t need to go very far: Crystal Palace Park has a hilly Parkrun, exercise classes, a children’s playground and the legendary dinosaurs. It’s extremely dog friendly, with plenty of space to throw a ball. It’s also home to Crystal Palace National Sports Centre, with its Olympic swimming pool, gym and squash courts. You can also join in with the beach volleyball as there’s a court in the park.
Gipsy Hill Station is 0.5 mi away, taking you to London Bridge & Victoria. Local bus routes take you to Brixton, Blackheath and Dulwich if you fancy exploring further afield.
Crystal Palace station is 0.7 miles away, from which you can hop on the East London Line to Canada Water and Shoreditch High Street, as well as catching a direct train to London Bridge or Victoria. Gatwick Airport is easily accessible too, with just one change at Norwood Junction.
