A compact studio apartment in Sutton offered as a leasehold investment with an existing tenancy in place. The flat sits in a 1980s residential block with low‑maintenance communal landscaping and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for modern renters.
Location is the principal strength: strong transport links to Central London (direct trains to Victoria and St Pancras), nearby shops, parks and a broad range of local amenities. Several highly regarded schools are within the borough and Sutton’s cultural venues and green spaces help sustain steady tenant demand.
Important considerations: the property is a studio with a single bathroom and limited living space, so it suits single occupants or short‑term lets rather than families. It is leasehold and currently tenanted — buyers should check lease length, service charges and rental terms. The area records higher crime levels compared with the borough average, which may affect some tenant profiles and insurance costs.
Overall this is a straightforward buy-to-let opportunity for an investor seeking a hands-off, city‑commuter tenant in Sutton. The price reflects a small, practical flat in a well‑connected town centre location; due diligence on lease specifics and tenant arrangements is recommended before purchase.
