A bright, modern two-bedroom flat on the second floor of a 2021 development, offered at full price or via Shared Ownership. The apartment provides an open-plan living/kitchen, a private balcony and an en-suite principal bedroom, arranged across approximately 717 sq ft of accommodation. EPC band B and low local crime add practical reassurance for first-time buyers.
Practical positives include a long lease (120 years remaining), mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and nearby amenities — supermarkets, cafés, South Norwood Country Park and leisure facilities are within a short walk. Commuters benefit from rail and tram links to central London and East Croydon.
Notable costs and constraints are plainly stated: the home is leasehold and sold under Shared Ownership, with an annual service charge (c. £1,866.48) and additional landlord charges payable on completion. Broadband and mobile signals are average and the living area has a sloped ceiling that reduces head height in places.
This flat will suit first-time buyers wanting a newer home with outdoor space and good transport access, and those prepared for Shared Ownership rules and ongoing service charges. Speak to a solicitor or financial adviser about the leasehold/shared ownership implications before committing.
