The location is one of the standout features. It’s really well connected, with National Rail and Overground services from Honor Oak Park just a short walk away, as well as Thameslink services from Crofton Park and additional National Rail links from Catford Bridge. And there is a lovely village-like feel around Brockley Rise.

The bedroom is spacious enough to comfortably accommodate a desk, which is ideal for remote working.
