Summary - 696A LONDON ROAD SUTTON SM3 9BY
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Recently refurbished throughout with new boiler and appliances
A freshly refurbished two-bedroom apartment on the second floor, offering compact, ready-to-move-in accommodation in central Cheam. The reception room and kitchen are well presented with new flooring and appliances, and a private balcony faces south with open skyline views over Surrey. The building dates from the 1930s–40s and retains period character while benefiting from contemporary finishes.
This flat is well suited to a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking low-immediate-maintenance possession: chain free, a new boiler, double glazing and a recent full refurbishment reduce short-term costs. Local amenities are immediate — shops, supermarkets and frequent buses to Sutton are on the doorstep — and several highly rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach.
Buyers should note material running costs and constraints: the property is leasehold with 108 years remaining, an estimated service charge of £2,879.20 (2025–26) and ground rent of £100pa. The overall footprint is modest (about 600 sq ft) and the flat sits above a busy high street, so road noise and limited private outdoor space are likely considerations. Broadband speeds are reported slow despite excellent mobile signal.
In short, this is a compact, low-upkeep city flat in a desirable Sutton neighbourhood — an attractive entry-level purchase or rental opportunity for those who prioritise location and move-in condition over generous internal space.
