Situated in a very deprived area with high local crime rate
No private garden; limited outdoor space
Step into a bright one-bedroom ground-floor flat in an Edwardian conversion, minutes from East Croydon transport hubs. The open-plan living area with a modern kitchen and double glazing suits a first home or buy-to-let starter; the property comes with a very long lease (989 years) and a share of freehold.
Practical running costs are reasonable: mains gas central heating, affordable council tax, and a below-average service charge of £840 plus a managing agent fee of £360 per year. There is no upward chain, so a swift completion is possible for buyers wanting to move quickly.
Buyers should note the location scores high for transport and local amenities but is within a very deprived area and a high-crime ward — an important consideration for families and some buyers. The building is a period red-brick property with solid walls (likely uninsulated) and may benefit from energy efficiency upgrades. There is no private garden and outdoor space appears limited.
This flat suits first-time buyers seeking a well-located, low-maintenance home or investors after a compact rental unit near major transport links. Factor in potential minor refurbishment and energy improvements when assessing value.
