Well-located two-bed first-floor flat with parking — ideal for first-time buyers..
Light, spacious lounge with good natural light
A bright two-bedroom first-floor apartment in a Tudor Revival mid-terrace, offered with allocated off-street parking and ready to move into. The lounge is light and well-proportioned and the property benefits from a modern fitted kitchen and bathroom. With fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and nearby bus links, shops and parks, the flat suits commuters and first-time buyers seeking convenience in Shirley.
The apartment is compact at around 593 sq ft, but the layout makes efficient use of space — two double bedrooms and a comfortably sized lounge. The lease has about 125 years remaining and the service charge is modest at £500, making ongoing costs predictable. Local schools are rated Good and the neighbourhood records low crime, adding to the appeal for buyers starting out.
Buyers should note the building’s age (c.1900–1929) and solid brick construction; insulation is likely limited and there are signs the exterior may need maintenance. The property description raises possible minor damp and general upkeep typical of period buildings. These are practical issues rather than major structural faults, but they may require attention and budget when you move in.
Overall this is a well-located, characterful flat that offers immediate occupation and sensible running costs. It will suit a first-time buyer or couple wanting an affordable entry into Croydon with good transport links, local amenities and nearby green spaces.
