Set within a period conversion near both West and East Croydon stations, this two-bedroom lower-ground apartment offers compact, characterful living with a private rear courtyard. The open-plan kitchen/lounge and well-proportioned bedrooms make efficient use of the circa 613 sq ft layout, and modern touches such as double glazing, recessed lighting and a fitted gas boiler add everyday convenience.
This home will suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors looking for an affordable entry into Croydon. Commuting is excellent, with Overground and rail services to central London and Gatwick nearby, plus a wide range of shops, restaurants and amenities in central Croydon. Local schools include highly rated options, strengthening long-term appeal for families.
There are practical factors to note: the property is leasehold with about 88 years remaining, a small ground rent of £250, and it sits in a very deprived area with high local crime statistics. The building is of solid brick construction with assumed lack of cavity insulation, so further thermal improvements or refurbishment work may be required to reduce running costs.
Overall, this modest but characterful flat delivers private outdoor space and strong transport links at an accessible price point. Buyers should budget for potential upgrading and be comfortable with the leasehold status and local area challenges.
