Full Description: <p>A chain-free, one-bedroom, south-facing, first-floor conversion flat on Birkbeck Road, offered with a share of freehold, a recently finished kitchen, a big living room and no onward chain.</p><p>The flat has its own entrance at street level, with stairs leading up to the first floor. Once inside, the layout works well and the space is generous, with the living room at the front and the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen arranged off the landing.</p><p>The living room is the part that really gives the flat its sense of scale. Two tall windows bring in a lot of light, and there is enough room to have a proper seating area and dining table without the room feeling overfilled. The fireplace and ceiling rose give it a bit of period character, while the wooden flooring keeps the room feeling warm and unfussy. It’s a fantastically bright space as it has a southern aspect, so it gets the sun from mid to late morning through to mid to late afternoon.</p><p>The kitchen has been recently redone; it combines modern design with practicality. White cabinetry is paired with pale worktops, muted green wall units and timber shelving, with the sink sitting beneath a large window looking out across the rooftops and trees behind. There is a gas hob, integrated oven, tall fridge freezer and plenty of worktop space.</p><p>The bedroom is a comfortable double with a tall window bringing in good natural light and enough room for wardrobes and further furniture without having to squeeze things in.</p><p>The bathroom is finished in warm neutral tiling and has a full-size bath with shower over, WC and basin, with its own window for daylight and ventilation.</p><p>Tenure-wise, the flat has a share of freehold and is being sold with a fresh 999 year lease. There are no service charges or ground rent. </p><p>Location-wise, Birkbeck station is only around 0.1 miles away, so the transport is genuinely very easy from here. Trains run towards London Bridge via Crystal Palace, while the tram gives you a quick route through to Beckenham Junction and East Croydon.</p><p>You also have Avenue Road tram stop at around 0.3 miles, Elmers End at roughly 0.55 miles, Kent House at around 0.63 miles and Clock House at approximately 0.66 miles, so there are several different routes into London depending on where you need to get to. Clock House and Elmers End both give you Southeastern services towards Charing Cross via Lewisham, while Kent House gives you regular trains into Victoria.</p><p>The stretch around Clock House and Beckenham Road has a good local feel to it, with independent cafés, restaurants and useful everyday shops. El Molino is a longstanding favourite for tapas, BR3WERY is nearby for local craft beer, and Beckenham High Street is easily reached when you want a wider choice of restaurants, shops and cafés.</p><p>South Norwood Country Park is also close by, with 125 acres of open space, wetland, woodland and walking routes. It gives you a decent amount of greenery nearby without having to make a whole day of it.</p><p><em>Some photographs have been virtually staged with furniture to show how the rooms could be used; nothing else within the flat has been altered.</em></p><br />EPC Rating: C
