Bright, modern first-floor apartment set to the rear of a low-maintenance building, ideal for commuters and small families. The flat offers two double bedrooms, a generous open-plan living area that opens onto a large balcony, and an allocated off-street parking space — practical everyday features for urban living.
The home benefits from an A (92) EPC rating, double glazing and underfloor heating, plus mains gas boiler heating for the rest of the apartment. Ownership is straightforward with a 247-year lease remaining, zero ground rent and a share of freehold. The property is chain-free and close to frequent train services to central London, local shops and bus routes.
Buyers should note the current service charge is around £2,100 per year and the building’s solid brick construction likely has limited cavity insulation as originally built (constructed 1930–1949). Internal layout and finishes are contemporary but room sizes are average; buyers seeking large family accommodation should check measurements. Council tax is moderate and local crime levels are average.
Overall this is a low-maintenance, well-located two-bedroom flat with long lease security and strong transport links — a sensible buy for commuters, downsizers or investors seeking a modern, easy-care property close to Purley amenities and good schools.
