Summary - Cairo New Road, CROYDON CR0 1GE
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Affordable shared‑ownership one‑bed with balcony and excellent transport links.
30% shared ownership — purchase price shown £84,000
A modern, high‑spec one-bedroom apartment offered as a 30% shared ownership opportunity, ideal for first‑time buyers seeking an affordable city base in central Croydon. The open-plan living, integrated kitchen appliances and private balcony make the most of the apartment’s compact 402 sqft layout, while high ceilings in the living area add a sense of space.
Practical costs are clear: current rent £591.06 pcm and service charge £209.22 pcm (service charge shown also £250.64 monthly overall). The long lease (approx. 246 years remaining) and no flood risk provide tenure security. Heating is provided via a community scheme and the property benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Be realistic about the location: this home sits in a deprived, inner-city area with high local crime rates. That affects both lifestyle and resale considerations, although the flat’s proximity to East and West Croydon stations, Tramlink and extensive bus routes is a strong commuter advantage. Local amenities, shopping and leisure are all within walking distance.
This apartment suits a buyer who values affordability, convenience and low-entry ownership rather than a large private space. It offers a practical, well-finished home with obvious potential for rental or stepped ownership, but buyers should factor in ongoing rent, service charges and the local area challenges when deciding to view.
