A compact, modern one-bedroom apartment on Edridge Road, offered at an accessible price for first-time buyers or investors. The open-plan lounge/kitchen and double bedroom make effective use of 349 sq ft, and large windows bring good natural light to the living space.
Practical benefits include a very long lease (992 years), double glazing, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for remote working or renting. The property is served by a community heating scheme and mains gas; communal maintenance keeps exterior upkeep low.
Material considerations are straightforward: the flat is small (349 sq ft) and located in a high-crime, higher-deprivation area, which may affect resale or rental appeal. Ground rent is £225 (small) and additional service charges or leasehold pack fees may apply — buyers should check exact costs and communal service arrangements before committing.
This apartment suits someone seeking an affordable entry into Croydon’s rental or owner-occupier market, or a downsizer wanting low-maintenance city living. A viewing and a survey are recommended to confirm condition and to review service charges and community heating details.
