Ground-floor purpose-built flat with generous living room and large double bedroom
A bright ground-floor flat arranged for comfortable, low-maintenance living in a Tudor-style block close to East Croydon.

This property is being offered with the option to secure a Lifetime Lease through Homewise for buyers aged 60+, typically reducing the purchase cost versus full market price. Guide Lifetime Lease price shown is £132,500 (market value £200,000); the exact price depends on age and personal circumstances and can include buying up to a 50% share.
Practical details to note: the flat is leasehold with around 95 years remaining, secondary glazing, and community electric heating. Service charge is relatively high at £4,454 per year and ground rent is £200. The building dates from c.1900–1929 and has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, which may affect heating costs and longer-term improvement options.
This home will suit downsizers or over-60s seeking a well-connected, characterful ground-floor flat with straightforward communal upkeep, provided buyers are happy with the service charge level and the leasehold tenure. Interested parties should verify all tenure, service charge and condition details with their solicitor and surveyor.
