A two-bedroom, two-bathroom flat on Snowdown Close in SE20, located very near to the High St, but tucked away in a quiet spot, with lovely green views. Offered with a share of freehold, a 989-year lease, one allocated parking space and no onward chain!

The flat sits in a well-maintained modern block with allocated off-street parking, and its position on the upper floor gives it something most flats at this price point can’t offer: a proper balcony with an open view over the park opposite — wide, green, and with nothing built in front of you.

The hallway gives a good first impression: panelled walls in warm grey, wood-effect flooring that runs throughout the flat, and recessed spotlights giving the whole corridor a clean, considered feel. It’s a thoughtful entry to a flat that has been finished to a consistently high standard.

The living and kitchen space runs across the width of the flat. The kitchen is fitted with cream gloss handleless units and dark solid worktops, with double integrated stainless steel ovens, an extractor above the cooker, and an inset sink under a window looking out to greenery — a small detail, but a welcome one when you’re standing there doing the washing up! There’s a good run of worktop and scope to add a nice kitchen island if wanted, this will increase prep area and give a casual seating area. The living area beyond the kitchen space is large enough to zone properly, taking a generous sofa and a dining area without feeling cramped.

The balcony runs off the living space, and the view is genuinely worth mentioning. Mature trees, open grass, wide sky. For a flat in London, this kind of outlook is a rarity!

Both bedrooms are east-facing doubles with fitted wardrobes in a warm taupe finish that sits comfortably against the surrounding whites. Morning light in both, which you’ll notice immediately. The principal bedroom has full-height fitted wardrobes across one wall and opens directly through to an en-suite shower room: vanity unit, enclosed shower with overhead rainhead, WC, and a window. The second bedroom is a proper double with fitted storage. The main bathroom has a full-size bath with an overhead shower, a grey vanity unit with countertop basin, large mirror above, and recessed lighting. Both bathrooms are cleanly done and in good condition.

Snowdown Close is 0.4 miles from Kent House Station (less than a ten min walk according to Google maps), with Overground services giving you direct access to Victoria in 20 mins. Clockhouse and Penge West are both only 0.7 miles away, and Penge East is only slightly further at 0.8 mi, adding further rail options into Victoria and London Bridge. Crystal Palace station is roughly a mile away.

Penge High Street covers day-to-day needs, which is a stone’s throw away, as is a reasonably sized Sainsburys supermarket. Crystal Palace Triangle is easily accessed, offering independent restaurants, coffee shops, the Everyman, the Saturday food market on Haynes Lane — is a straightforward bus ride up the hill from Anerley Hill. Crystal Palace Park is close: 200 acres, the boating lake, the famously eccentric Victorian dinosaurs, and the National Sports Centre for anything more structured. Winsford Gardens is just across the road — a quiet, well-kept local park for when the larger circuits don’t appeal. Dulwich, Sydenham, West Norwood, and Brixton are all within easy reach for evenings out.

Tenure-wise, the flat has a share of freehold with an accompanying lease of 989 years. The service charge is £900 per annum, and as it is a share of freehold, there is no ground rent.
