One-bedroom commuter flat next to Sanderstead Station, ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Allocated off-street parking space included
A compact, well-located one-bedroom apartment ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking low-entry purchase in South Croydon. The flat sits on Mayfield Road with Sanderstead Station literally on the doorstep, offering direct services to London Bridge and Victoria and multiple local bus routes for easy commuting.
The property benefits from allocated off-street parking, double glazing, and a long 999-year lease with a share of freehold — useful ownership features that reduce medium-term risk. The building dates from 2009 and the flat is presented with a modern fitted kitchen and a bright reception room; communal gardens provide outdoor space.
Be clear about the practical considerations: the apartment is small at approximately 387 sqft, heated by electric storage heaters and rated EPC E, so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. There is an average service charge (circa £1,044 per year / about £87pcm) and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, which can affect efficiency and comfort.
If you prioritise commuter convenience, low-maintenance living, and long lease security, this property offers strong value for the area. For buyers sensitive to energy costs or needing more living space, consider the size and heating setup before proceeding.
