Guide Price £400,000 - £415,000.

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).

And Sydenham High Street, Kirkdale and Forest Hill’s Dartmouth Road are all close for shops, social spots and amenities.

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 161 (fancy food and wine), The Journey Cafe, Cobb’s Corner Cafe, The Moustache (cafe/bar), Bona (pizzas), Fat Cheeks (Thai), Mamma Dough and Gurkha’s (Nepalese and Indian).

Local green spaces include Wells, Mayow and Crystal Palace parks, and Horniman Gardens of course (by Horniman Museum and with fab skyline views).
