This beautifully quirky one-bedroom split-level conversion sits atop a grand Victorian building in one of Crystal Palace's quieter residential pockets. With well-thought-out space across two levels, the flat feels larger than its already generous square footage, thanks to the clever split-level design. Offered to the market with a long lease in excess of 160 years.Stepping through the front door, you're greeted by a lovely double bedroom with high ceilings and two large windows flooding the space with natural light. A large built-in wardrobe in the corner eliminates the need for freestanding furniture, while a useful nook currently accommodates a decent-sized desk perfect for those who've embraced working from home.There is a large bathroom opposite the bedroom, with a rainfall shower over a full-size bath and modern tiled walls. The high ceilings add to the sense of space found throughout the flat, and the overall presentation just feels right.Moving up to the upper floor, the bright living room offers a pretty view down Mowbray Road without opposing buildings blocking your sightlines. Quality floors, recessed spotlights and reasonable ceiling height create an enjoyable space to relax in.The kitchen flows naturally off the living room with plentiful wooden worktop space and loads of storage. A recently installed boiler keeps things practical, while the tiled floor and cosy feel work brilliantly. There is scope to open up the kitchen to the living room, adding more light into the living space and creating a larger more impressive space.There is a large back garden, which is used communally, although the flats do own a section of the garden, it's always been felt better used as an open communal space. With a south-eastern aspect, it's perfect for BBQs and having friends over. Also, worth mentioning is the loft space, which adds considerable storage something often lacking in one-bedroom flats.Tenure-wise, the lease has approximately 162 years remaining, removing any immediate concerns about extensions. Ground rent is peppercorn, while the service charge sits at £150 per month covering building running costs and insurance straightforward and sensible.Location-wise, you're half a mile from both Crystal Palace Park and station, putting 200 acres of Grade II listed parkland on your doorstep alongside quick links to London Victoria and London Bridge.
