Local area: high crime rate and very deprived — factor for resale/insurance
This larger-than-average two-bedroom coach house offers a bright, open-plan 22' x 21' sitting/dining room and a separate modern kitchen, making it an easy-to-live-in home for first-time buyers. The layout gives the feel of a small house — own front door, first-floor living and two double bedrooms — while the contemporary finish means little immediate cosmetic work is required.
Practical running costs are clear: 115 years remaining on a lease created in 2015, an annual service charge of £1,303.50 (including a sinking fund contribution) and a modest £100 ground rent. One allocated parking space and communal landscaped gardens provide outdoor amenity without private garden upkeep.
Location gives decent commuter access to Redhill, London, Gatwick and the M23/M25, and several local schools are rated Good. Important negatives are factual: the neighbourhood has elevated crime and high area deprivation, and the property has a single family bathroom only. These factors affect suitability and insurance/council perceptions and may influence resale or lettability in the short term.
Overall this property suits a first-time buyer looking for generous indoor space and low-maintenance outdoor areas, or an investor seeking a straightforward, contemporary two-bed with clear costs. Be aware of the local social statistics and factor service charge and community context into your decision.
