Property Description

GUIDE PRICE £400,000 - £425,000

Propertyworld is delighted to present this spacious, two DOUBLE bedroom, ground floor Victorian flat with a stunning private rear garden in Dartmouth Road, bordering Sydenham and Forest Hill. The property boasts 750 square feet of bright and airy living accommodation which is almost doubled when the garden is taken into account.

You enter the building into a small porch area shared with the upstairs flat. The reception, located at the front of the building is almost 23 ft at its longest point and nearly 17 feet at its widest, boasts a gorgeous parquet wooden floor with ample space for a dining area as well as generous seating area to chill out. The kitchen, which is fully fitted, has a range of white wall and base units with integrated electric oven, gas hob and extractor, and a fully tiled floor. The remaining rooms are accessed off a long hallway. Both bedrooms are at the back of the property with views over the garden. The bathroom is a contemporary affair with a three-piece white suite and partly tiled walls in a neutral tone.

The garden certainly has the wow factor. This impressive space is low on maintenance, high on fun! A hard-wearing composite decking area is the perfect space to chill out and enjoy the sun. Towards the rear is a funky fire pit with wooden stools around it; perfect for cooking those marshmallows or keeping warm as the summer heat dies down. Smartly hidden behind a part brick wall is a shed to house all the things you want out of sight.

Share of freehold, a long, recently extended lease, no service charges or ground rent, and double glazing throughout are just some of the many additional benefits.

Location wise it’s a dream. You can stroll into both Forest hill and Sydenham centers making the most of the vast choice of restaurants, gastropubs, independent shops, and cafes. Sydenham, Forest hill and Sydenham Hill train stations can also be easily walked to providing fast and easy access into London

"We love the flat's amazing location, it's equidistant between Forest Hill and Sydenham, with Crystal Palace and East Dulwich within walking distance and easy transport links to the center of London. Kirkdale has a lovely community 'village' feel. We have two coffee shops right on the doorstep, one of which is also a wine bar with fantastic jazz nights. The flat itself has a charming quirky layout including a really spacious lounge, fitted with original parquet flooring that we love and stylish pendant lighting. The garden is one of our favorite spots, it's private, quiet and gets sunlight from morning until early evening in the summer. It's also fully-decked with unique wood-free millboard decking, that is designed to be incredibly low maintenance, it never warps or needs treating. There is also a built-in brick fire pit made from recycled pieces of the old garden wall - its such a great feature and perfect for year-round socializing."
