I am looking for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Bromley Common I like with open areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Bromley Common in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage that many years may be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.

My husband and I hope to buy our first property in Bromley Common. Conveyancing lawyer already chosen. The mortgage adviser suggested that a survey is not appropriate as the property was only constructed twenty two years ago.

As the bare minimum you need a Home Buyer's Report. Given the property is more than ten years old the property will not come with a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report may be sufficient. The report should highlight any apparent problems and recommend additional investigation if appropriate. If there are any indications of material issues get a full Building Survey from the beginning.
