Newly refurbished two-bedroom split-level maisonette
A newly refurbished two-bedroom split-level maisonette in Park Hill, East Croydon, offering generous living space across two floors and a long lease (139 years). The property has been finished to a modern standard throughout, with a brand new kitchen and bathroom, bright reception/diner and useful built-in storage including loft access. A garage en bloc and residents’ permit parking add rare practical value for the area.
This home suits first-time buyers or commuter couples who want ready-to-move-in accommodation with strong connections: East Croydon station and Tramlink are a short walk away, providing fast links to Central London, Gatwick and the south coast. The flat’s 899 sq ft layout feels larger than many two-bed options locally and benefits from nearby parks and highly rated primary schools.
Be clear on running costs and construction details: heating is electric via room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can be more expensive to run. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and walls are cavity as-built with no confirmed additional insulation (assumed). Service charge (£552 pa) and ground rent (£90 pa) are modest, and broadband speeds are average in the area.
Overall this maisonette offers immediate comfort and commuter convenience with a practical parking and garage provision. It’s an attractive, low-maintenance purchase for buyers seeking a modernised home close to excellent transport and local amenities, provided you accept electric heating and the typical thermal characteristics of its construction era.
