Summary - 19 Godstone Mount, Downs Court Road CR8 1BA
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact commuter home with long lease and recent upgrades.
Two bedrooms with newly fitted kitchen and bathroom (Aug 2025)
Bright, newly refreshed two-bedroom first-floor apartment ideal for first-time buyers or commuters. The vendor has modernised the flat with a newly fitted kitchen and bathroom (August 2025) and new flooring throughout, creating a clean, move-in-ready space. The 13' x 11'11 lounge opens onto a balcony and the largest bedroom measures 12' x 11'9, both benefitting from good natural light.
Practical running costs are straightforward: a long lease of 930 years, service charge around £1,250 pa and a modest ground rent of £50. The property has an EPC rating of C and gas central heating with boiler and radiators. At 550 sq ft the accommodation is compact, so it suits buyers wanting efficient space rather than large rooms.
Location is a definite asset: 0.3 miles from Purley station for fast commuter links, with good mobile signal and fast broadband. Local schools include several highly rated primaries and an outstanding secondary, and there is shared garden space for outdoor use.
Buyers should note a few material points: the overall size is small, the block dates from mid-20th century and walls are solid brick (insulation status unknown), and the local recorded crime level is very high. These factors should be weighed alongside the long lease, recent internal upgrades and commuter convenience when deciding whether to view.
