A bright ground-floor flat with a long lease and allocated parking, quietly set within easy reach of Sutton town centre and Sutton Common station. The apartment offers two double bedrooms, a modern fitted kitchen and a generous lounge/diner — a straightforward layout that suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
Practical benefits include an allocated off-street parking space, communal gardens and a lease in excess of 170 years, which reduces common mortgage and resale complications. Local amenities and several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, and the area benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Buyers should note the property is relatively small (approximately 582 sq ft) and forms part of a block built c.1976–82; the double glazing predates 2002 and some communal maintenance costs apply. Annual service charge and ground rent are payable (circa £1,471 and £200 respectively), so factor these into ongoing running costs.
Overall this is a practical, low-risk purchase for someone seeking an affordable entry into Sutton or a rental purchase with straightforward tenant appeal. The long lease, allocated parking and proximity to transport and schools are the primary value drivers.
