Modern one-bedroom apartment just 170 yards from Sutton mainline station, offering direct trains to London Bridge and Victoria in under 30 minutes. The open kitchen/breakfast area flows into a compact living room with double doors onto a south-facing balcony, maximising daylight for the apartment’s small footprint.
Built in 2017 and offered with an exceptionally long lease (992 years), this home includes fitted kitchen appliances, built-in bedroom storage and a modern bathroom — a straightforward, low-upkeep purchase for a buyer seeking immediate access to transport and town-centre amenities. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working and streaming.
Buyers should note the apartment’s compact size (around 350 sq ft) and communal heating arrangement, which may affect running costs and independence of control. The service charge (£1,909 pa) and ground rent (£225 pa) are recurring costs to factor in. The local area records higher crime and wider signs of deprivation, so viewings are advised to assess neighbourhood fit.
This property suits a first-time buyer or commuter seeking a well-presented, low-maintenance flat with excellent links to central London. It offers practical city-living convenience and long-term security via its lease, while also presenting modest living space and communal-cost considerations that a buyer should budget for.
