1 bedroom ground floor flat for sale in Downs Court Road, Purley, Surrey, CR8

Summary - Flat 4, 22 Downs Court Road CR8 1BB

1 bed 1 bath Ground Flat

Spacious one-bedroom retirement flat with garden, parking and walking distance to Purley station.
Large ground-floor one-bedroom apartment with private rear garden
A spacious ground-floor one-bedroom apartment set in a semi-detached, mid‑20th century building with a private rear garden and balcony overlooking pleasant views. The flat offers a large lounge with feature fireplace, separate kitchen and dining area, basement storage and an allocated off‑street parking space — practical features for everyday living close to Purley station.

This property is being promoted with a Home for Life Lifetime Lease example for over‑60s: a guide Lifetime Lease price is £221,500 (market value £335,000). The scheme allows purchasers aged 60+ to buy a share (up to 50%) of the property value, reducing upfront cost; actual price varies by age and circumstances. The flat benefits from Share of Freehold and a long remaining lease of 114 years.

Practical considerations: the building dates from the 1930s–1940s and external walls are cavity construction with assumed lack of insulation, which may mean energy improvements are advisable. Service charge is £648 (below average) and council tax is described as affordable. Buyers should verify fixtures, services and any planning/consent for conversions; the Homewise price example is not an exclusive sale and full market purchase is possible.

Well suited to someone looking to downsize or secure a retirement home with outdoor space and easy rail links. The combination of garden, parking and storage gives useful everyday convenience, while the Lifetime Lease option may reduce the capital required for eligible purchasers.
