Chain-free three-bed maisonette with long lease, close to tram and schools..
Chain free with long lease (168 years remaining)
This three-bedroom maisonette on Selsdon Park Road offers straightforward, chain-free entry with a long lease — attractive to first-time buyers and investors. The layout delivers a bright, mid-century-style living room, a compact kitchen, and a sizeable loft with genuine potential for conversion (subject to permissions). Practical features include mains gas central heating, double glazing, and easy access to Tram and bus links for East Croydon.
The flat sits above a commercial shop and has been priced to reflect its position; purchasers should factor this into resale or rental expectations. Accommodation is compact overall (approximately 771 sq ft) and will suit buyers seeking an economical starter home or a let-ready asset rather than a spacious family house. The property benefits from both front and rear access and is close to good primary schools and local amenities.
Service charges and running costs are reasonable to note: current service charge is £1,293.27 per year, ground rent nil, council tax in Band C. The lease is long (168 years remaining), removing immediate lease-extension costs. Some areas feel dated — the kitchen is functional but older, and walls are original solid brick (insulation unknown) — so modest updating would improve comfort and value.
Overall, this maisonette is a pragmatic purchase for someone prioritising location, transport links and long lease security. It offers immediate occupation with scope to add value through sympathetic updating and possible loft extension, but buyers should accept compact rooms and its position above a commercial unit.
