Description
A one-bedroom first-floor flat with a share of freehold and off street parking, offered in excellent condition and full of Victorian charm, with a lovely outlook to the rear and a location that gives you easy access to both Crystal Palace and the best of Anerley Road. At 543 sq ft it's a great size for a one-bed, and the flat has been well looked after — it's genuinely ready to move straight into.
The living and dining room is the star of the show, and at 4.98 x 4.06m it's a genuinely impressive space for a one-bedroom flat. Original cornicing, a beautiful Victorian fireplace painted in deep charcoal with an original surround, stripped wooden floorboards, and dark floating shelves in both alcoves that give the room a considered, lived-in feel. There's a large sash window to the rear, flooding the room with light, and enough space here for a proper sofa arrangement, a dining table and chairs, and a workspace too — it handles everything without ever feeling cluttered.
The bedroom at 4.06 x 3.45m faces the front of the building with a wide three-pane sash window that fills the room with morning light, it has a bright southern aspect so gets great light in the first half of the day. It's a well-proportioned double with engineered flooring and enough floor space for a king-size bed with room on both sides and storage beyond that.
The kitchen has real personality — white gloss units, wooden worktops and a deep forest green metro tile splashback that gives it a lovely warmth. There's an integrated oven, hob and washing machine, and it's presented in great condition throughout and has a lovely green view over the neighbouring gardens.
The bathroom has been done well — white crisp tiles, a full-length bath with overhead shower and glass screen, terrazzo floor tiles, black fittings and a round mirror above the wall-hung vanity unit. Clean, fresh and in excellent nick.
Location-wise, the flat is really well positioned for transport and for everything that makes this part of South London such a great place to live. You're only 0.5 miles — a 12 minute walk — from Anerley Station, which sits on the Overground's Windrush line and also has direct trains to London Bridge during peak hours. Crystal Palace Station is just a mile away, adding London Bridge, Victoria, Herne Hill and Brixton to your options.
Crystal Palace Park is also a mile away, with the nearest entrance on Thicket Road leading straight to the boating lake and the famous dinosaurs, the brilliant Brown & Green café and the Sunday food market. There's also a 5k parkrun every Saturday at 9am — perfect for working off the week before you head out again.
Just slightly further up Anerley Road, just under a mile away, are some genuinely much-loved local businesses: Café Chic for the falafel and halloumi wraps, Bob Wines for an excellent bottle to take home, and the incredibly popular Chatsworth Bakehouse, known for their exceptional sandwiches and focaccia — yes, the queues are worth it.
And just up the hill on the Triangle, you have some of the best gastropubs in South London, the Everyman Cinema, great coffee shops, galleries, yoga schools, and the farmers' market on Haynes Lane every Saturday. It's one of those locations where the further you explore, the more you find to love about it.
