A compact ground-floor studio in Dalewood Gardens offering straightforward rental potential close to Crawley town centre and transport links. The layout integrates sleeping and living space with a small fitted kitchen and a simple bathroom, making the apartment quick to let to single tenants or professionals commuting to Gatwick.
Practical ownership features include communal gardens, off-street parking and an unusually long lease (circa 153 years). Service charges are moderate at £629, ground rent is nominal and council tax is very low — factors that support positive net yields for a buy-to-let purchase.
Be clear about limitations: at approximately 350 sq ft the accommodation is small, with limited storage and only one main room. The property sits in an area recorded as having higher crime rates, which may affect tenant demand and insurance costs. The building dates from the late 1970s–early 1980s and buyers should budget for routine maintenance and an independent check of services and appliances before purchase.
Overall this studio is aimed at investors seeking an affordable, low-entry rental unit in a well-connected Crawley location. Its strengths are location, lease length and low ongoing ground rent; its trade-offs are compact size and local area crime levels, both of which factor into achievable rents and management considerations.
