About this property
Situated on the highly regarded High View Road, this beautifully presented share of freehold garden flat offers a rare combination of longterm ownership security, minimal outgoings, and scope for future enhancement, all within the heart of Crystal Palace.
The property benefits from an impressive 161year lease and a share of the freehold, with no ground rent or service charge payable. The only shared cost is a modest contribution towards communal electricity, typically around £15 per quarter, making this an exceptionally economical home to run.
Internally, the flat was completely restored by the current owner approximately 11 years ago, thoughtfully reconfigured to create a separate sleeping area alongside a stylish openplan kitchen and living space. The result is a bright, modern layout that maximises both space and natural light, perfectly suited to contemporary living.
The front reception room is a particular highlight, enjoying a sunny aspect and featuring large bay windows that flood the space with light, creating a welcoming and airy atmosphere. The property has also recently benefited from brand new doubleglazed windows installed in 2025, enhancing both energy efficiency and comfort throughout.
To the rear, the flat enjoys private outdoor space, offering a rare opportunity for buyers seeking external amenity. Subject to agreement between the freeholders, the garden also provides potential to extend and create an additional room, presenting exciting scope to add value in the future (STPP and freeholder consent).
High View Road is a quiet, attractive residential street, further enhanced by free onstreet parking, while remaining superbly positioned for the vibrant lifestyle Crystal Palace has to offer. A wide range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, and green spaces are all close at hand, with Gipsy Hill Station approximately a 10minute walk away, providing direct rail services into central London. Brixton is also easily accessible by bus, adding further connectivity.
This property represents an outstanding opportunity for firsttime buyers seeking a lowoutgoings home with longterm security, as well as buytolet investors looking for a welllocated, highdemand rental property.
An excellent home combining charm, practicality, and future potential in one of SE19’s most desirable locations
