Summary - 31 FLAT 2 DORNTON ROAD SOUTH CROYDON CR2 7DR
1 bed 1 bath Studio
Compact long-lease studio near South Croydon station — low running costs.
Ground-floor studio with mezzanine kitchen/diner and separate bathroom
A compact ground-floor studio with long lease and low running costs, positioned a short walk from South Croydon station and local shops. The mezzanine layout makes efficient use of the 319 sq ft footprint, providing a defined kitchen/diner area, open studio reception and a separate bathroom — ideal for city living or rental demand.
Practical benefits include a 900+ year lease (secure ownership term), double glazing, mains gas central heating and fast broadband/mobile coverage. Service charges are moderate (circa £688) and council tax is low, helping keep ongoing costs down for a first-time buyer or investor.
The building is Victorian with solid brick walls and retains period character externally; internally the flat is small and will suit buyers seeking a compact, low-maintenance home or a buy-to-let opportunity. There is little private outdoor space and the layout is tight, so viewings are recommended to assess suitability and storage.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold and additional leasehold-related fees (packs, administration) may apply. The fabric appears to be uninsulated solid brick — upgrading insulation and modern finishes could add value but will require investment.
