While some properties get snapped up within hours of hitting the market, others can take a little longer to become someone’s new home.
Properties which have been waiting for a buyer for some time could mean you are in a better position to haggle the price down, so there’s a chance you could grab a bargain.
And that's no different for Lewisham, seeing one property on Zoopla first listed in May 2021 that has yet to find the right buyer.
Of course, sometimes the reason a property might not be selling is that the vendor is asking too high a price and is unwilling to come down on it.
However, that doesn't seem to be the case for this listing, after it reduced the price by £25,000 in October 2022, seeing a final asking price of £500,000.
But if you were on the hunt for a new family home, then look no further as this property on Zoopla might just be for you.
Lewisham's longest listed property for sale on Zoopla now
Starting off in the living room, you can see the area is clean with bright walls and large open windows for natural light.
There's the chance to place a good-sized sofa and make the room your own, with smart storage solutions and moving placements of the furniture.
Next into the kitchen that is family sized with modern appliances and plenty of counter space.
You can also modernise and update the area with new cabinet, flooring and even a new lick of paint.
The home has two bathrooms, the first of two is larger with tiled walls and flooring and is modern.
It features an angled bath with an overhead shower, sink and toilet along with a light-up mirror.
It also has three bedrooms, also good sized and has space for a double bed, but looking into the master room, you can see it is large with room for plenty of furniture.
With storage solutions throughout, including the built-in cupboard, there is also an extra room with draws and even a vanity unit.
The property even has a garden that has a large palm tree too, with a patio and gravel. It could be great for a young family and is perfect for family gatherings.
You could even make it your own by laying some grass and adding some more garden features too.
