£399,950

Tidy and bright two double bedroom second floor modern-built apartment of 736 square feet. Double-glazing throughout, a pleasing private balcony and large communal roof terrace are the cherries on top.

Walk eight minutes to Sydenham Station or 12 to Forest Hill (both offer mainline and overground services). You also have great (24 hour) bus services from outside the flat into Covent Garden/central London.

And Sydenham High Street, Kirkdale and Forest Hill’s Dartmouth Road are all close for shops, social spots and amenities. Walk 15 minutes to Horniman Museum and Gardens. It is a five minute walk to Wells Park and 15 to Crystal Palace Park.

You open your own front door into a smart hall with built-in coat closet. First on your right is your modern internal bathroom - with contemporary sanitary ware, monochrome detailing, and good storage (mirrored cabinets, inset shelving and under-basin drawers).

Next along are your two good double bedrooms (the first has a built-in wardrobe to the near wall, and herringbone flooring). Then you have your open-plan main room - which delivers seating, dining and kitchen spaces. Modern kitchen cabinets are plentiful (hugging two walls) and are paired with wooden worktops. Access your balcony via a large sliding double-glazed door.

Sydenham and Forest Hill have such good places for food and drink. Some of our favourites include The Greyhound pub, Sushi Garden, The Journey Cafe (ace grilled sarnies), Cobb’s Corner Cafe (fab coffee and cooked breakfasts), The Moustache (cafe/bar, fab wine and cheese), Bona (pizzas), Fat Cheeks (Thai), Mamma Dough and Gurkha’s (Nepalese and Indian).

For fitness you are 5-10 minutes from a swimming pool, two gyms, and two yoga studios.
