A spacious first-floor one-bedroom flat in Sutton offering large living spaces, high ceilings and a private rear garden — rare for this property type. The kitchen and bathroom have been recently refurbished, so the flat is move-in ready while retaining period character from its Edwardian/Victorian build. With 560 sq ft and generous room proportions, it feels larger than many typical one-bedroom flats.
There is clear potential to create a second bedroom, subject to planning permission, which will appeal to first-time buyers wanting growth or investors seeking higher rental yield. The property benefits from double glazing, mains gas boiler and fast broadband, and sits a few minutes’ walk from Sutton High Street and frequent transport links.
Practical considerations: the property is leasehold (999 years remaining) and sits in an area with a higher-than-average crime rate, which may influence some buyers. The building’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and further insulation or upgrades could be needed. Any conversion or structural work will need planning and building-regulation checks and associated costs.
Local schools are well rated nearby, and a wide range of shops and amenities lie within easy walking distance. For a buyer looking to enter the market with scope to add value — or an investor seeking a centrally located rental — this flat combines convenience, character and realistic improvement potential.
