This ground-floor, two-double-bedroom apartment in Lansdowne Court offers commuter-friendly living with a very long lease and no onward chain. At about 611 sq ft, it suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking immediate occupation or light refurbishment to add value. The property includes direct access to communal grounds and a garage space, rare for central locations.
The flat is ready to move into with fresh paint and new carpeting; original parquet flooring could be reinstated if preferred. Practical features include double glazing and a separate kitchen, bathroom plus a separate WC. Purley and Purley Oaks stations are a short walk away, providing fast links to central London and Gatwick, while local shops, schools and open spaces are nearby.
Buyers should note some material points: heating is by electric room heaters (no central heating), the EPC rating is E, and the building dates from the 1950s–60s with cavity walls likely without added insulation. Service charges average around £1,750 per year. These factors mean modest upgrading may be needed to improve energy efficiency and running costs.
Overall this is an affordable, chain-free flat with strong transport links and long-term security from a 900+ year lease. It will appeal to commuters and investors who want a solid base to modernise and increase rental or resale value.
