A huge, luxurious, modern, one-bedroom flat with a large terrace, a stunning finish, and a long (121-year) lease and reasonable service charges. Located in a secure modern block, within very easy reach of Crystal Palace Triangle.

Located on the second floor, this beautiful flat has been very well designed and finished to an exceptionally high standard, making it ideal for someone who wants to move straight in. It has a large footprint and spans over 600ft2, which is larger than some two-bedroom flats!

The vast reception room offers an attractive open-plan living space; it’s a great space for entertaining, and with the open-plan layout, you can keep up with the conversation when having guests over whilst cooking. The herringbone floor runs throughout the reception, kitchen and hall, which is a classy touch. Owing to the size of the room, you can easily accommodate a very large dining table and also a massive sofa, or a collection of sofas if you wish!

Like the rest of the flat, the kitchen is of incredible quality. It’s practical as well as attractive; the grey colour scheme complements the beautiful herringbone floor well, and all the appliances are integrated, including a dishwasher, fridge freezer, washing machine, electric oven, and induction hob. The worktops are high-quality quartz, and the grooved channels leading to the butler sink and the tiled splashbacks are nice touches that demonstrate the quality of this interior.  

The bedroom is another chunky room with plenty of space to add wardrobes. You can fit the bed of your dreams in here, and there’s space for a decent-sized desk, dresser and drawers if needed! Whilst it’s a big space, it feels snug with carpet underfoot and on warmer days, it’s a huge bonus to be able to open the large doors onto the terrace

Adjacent to the bedroom is the bathroom, which feels really premium; the herringbone tiled floors add a touch of class, and the rain shower over a full-sized bath gives you the best of both worlds. Notably, there are two decent-sized storage cupboards opposite the bathroom, ideal for storing away practical household items but also larger items, too.

Off the reception is a large balcony; it’s quite sheltered, so it can be used for more of the year than if it were open, it certainly feels private and is screened from any passers-by on the road by planters. It’s a fab place to grab a book, a glass of wine, or your morning coffee! You can also definitely BBQ for a few mates out there, or if you’re the solitary type, a hammock would fit well, too!

The flat has…

…a share of freehold with 121 years on its lease

…a service charge of £178 PCM

Location-wise, the flat is ideally located within close proximity to the vibrant Crystal Palace Triangle, offering an array of trendy cafes, great coffee shops, commendable restaurants, boutiques, galleries, and vintage furniture shops. At the opposite end of Church Road, there is also an Everyman Cinema and a yoga school.

There’s a strong local community based around the triangle and a distinctly arty & creative vibe, which is reflected in the local businesses; most are independent, which locals are rightfully proud of. An example of this is the Haynes Lane market, operating on Saturdays; it offers the best fresh produce, including cheese, bread, meats and vegetarian options; it is well worth the short stroll on a Saturday morning!

Crystal Palace is of course, renowned for its leafy streets and green spaces, including the stunning Crystal Palace Park, which provides an idyllic setting for outdoor activities and leisurely strolls, it spans 200 acres, which will help you while away the weekends and offers plenty of space to exercise, not to mention the renowned Grade II listed Crystal Palace Dinosaurs which date back to the 1850s. Westow Park is just down the road, as is Stambourne Woods, a hidden gem of natural tranquillity, so that’s over 210 acres of outdoor space to enjoy on your doorstep!

The flat has excellent transport links, including Crystal Palace Overground station & also Gipsy Hill stations, which are both 0.9 mi away or approx. 18 min walk according to Google maps, making the commute into central London easy; there are direct links to London Bridge, Victoria, Shoreditch and beyond. Nearby is also the SL6 express bus, which runs non-stop from West Norwood to Waterloo and terminates in Russell Square, providing another easy option into central London.

For those wanting to venture further afield, access to Dulwich, Brixton & Clapham is easy from Crystal Palace, offering more options for restaurants and nights out.
