Summary - 112, Middlefields CR0 9LH
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free one-bed flat with garage, long lease and refurbishment potential near Croydon.
Chain-free one-bedroom flat with long 974-year lease
A chain-free, one-bedroom first-floor flat with a long lease and garage en-bloc, offered for sale in Forestdale, Croydon. The property sits in a mid-20th-century brick block close to local shops, woodland walks and regular bus/tram links into Croydon town centre. The flat is compact (approximately 449 sq ft) and benefits from gas central heating and double glazing.
This is a straightforward refurbishment project: the layout includes entrance hall, lounge, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, and the accommodation is well proportioned for its size. The share of freehold and 974-year lease are strong tenure features that reduce long-term ownership costs; ground rent is nil. Annual service charge is £1,603.04 and council tax is in Band B.
The location suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking transport connections, nearby schools (several rated Good) and access to green space. Drawbacks are clear and factual: the flat requires modernisation throughout, communal block dates from the late 1960s–1970s, and the local area scores as relatively deprived. Buyers should allow budget for cosmetic and possible system updates and note glazing is older double glazing installed before 2002.
Viewings will suit anyone wanting a reasonably priced, long-lease property to refurbish and either move into or rent out. Broadband and mobile signal are good, and there is a garage for parking or storage, which is an uncommon bonus for flats of this size.
