Summary - THACKERAY MANOR, 22 FLAT 8 MANOR PARK ROAD SUTTON SM1 4AH
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Large, bright flat with commuter links and conversion potential.
817 sq ft — unusually large one-bedroom apartment
This spacious first-floor one-bedroom apartment in Thackeray Manor offers an uncommon 817 sq ft of well-proportioned living space, bright principal rooms and a large double bedroom. Large windows and a balcony flood the living/dining room with natural light, creating an airy feel that will appeal to buyers wanting room to live and entertain. The flat is presented in good decorative order and is ready to move into or rent out.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (c.947 years), share of freehold ownership, and an annual service charge of £2,424. The location is a genuine convenience: Sutton Mainline Station and town centre amenities are on the doorstep, providing fast commuter links and local shops, cafés and gyms within easy walking distance.
There is potential to reconfigure the layout (convert the existing kitchen into a second bedroom subject to planning), or open the living room to the kitchen for an open-plan arrangement — useful flexibility for first-time buyers or investors seeking rental uplift. Off-street parking and communal grounds add practical appeal, though the apartment does not benefit from a private garden.
Buyers should note a few trade-offs: the property uses warm-air electric heating (less efficient than gas systems), communal upkeep is covered by the annual service charge, and the area records higher crime levels than average. The kitchen footprint is compact and may require alteration for an open-plan scheme. Overall, this is a roomy, well-located flat offering immediate occupation and sensible potential for modest remodelling.
