Maple Road, Roberts Court Maple Road, SE20
A very well-presented two-bedroom flat in a really well-maintained block, offered with a long lease (998 years), a great distribution of space, a garage and a position convenient for Anerley Station and Penge High Street. Situated on the third floor, with tremendous views and fabulous light.
The reception room is the heart of this home. It’s a large social space that allows room for both a comfortable lounge and dining area, with a table for six easily accommodated. The décor is neutral, and the space has large windows with an east-to-west aspect, making it really bright in the morning and the evening. There’s a beautiful view towards Crystal Palace to the north, taking in the tower at Crystal Palace Park.
The kitchen is organised in a horseshoe configuration, which creates a massive amount of worktop space, and there is an overhang creating a useful breakfast bar, so you can catch up with your guests while you cook; it’s also a great space for casual meals and breakfasts. Directly over the sink is another window with that lovely view of Crystal Palace, and whilst it is a lovely view to take in while washing up, you have an integrated dishwasher!
The bedrooms are both generously proportioned. Being adjacent to each other with an eastern exposure means they get fabulous light in the mornings. They both have the same flooring found throughout the flat, which makes it easier to clean and keeps allergens at bay.
The bathroom is also a lovely space and nicely finished. There is a full-size bath with a rain shower over it, metro tiles on the walls and modern sanitaryware that complements the overall décor of the bathroom.
We believe the flat has…
…a long lease of 998 years
…a service charge of £1250 per annum
…an annual ground rent of £10
…a garage
Location-wise, the flat is situated 0.4 miles from Anerley station for the Overground line (9 minutes according to Google maps) and is approx. a mile from Crystal Palace Station.

There are frequent buses heading there from Anerley Hill (1 minute walk), making the journey easy to access all that Crystal Palace offers.
The famous Crystal Palace Park is also nearby and has 200 acres of green space, a boating lake, dinosaurs and the national sports centre, where you can partake in a variety of activities & sports from swimming to trampolining, football, netball, volleyball, and many others. It also has a well-equipped gym and a physio on site. For a more local park, across the road from the flat is Winsford Gardens, which is a hidden gem of a space, loved for its manicured look and utter tranquillity. Dulwich, West Norwood, East Dulwich, Sydenham & Brixton are all within very easy reach of the flat and open up many options for nights and meals out at the weekends and evenings.
