Long lease two-bedroom flat with strong transport links — ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Two double bedrooms, second-floor flat
This well-proportioned two-bedroom second-floor flat in Drive House offers practical, entry-level accommodation for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property benefits from a long lease (approx. 144 years), two double bedrooms and good transport links with Mitcham Eastfields and Mitcham Junction within walking distance.
Internally the flat is functional but in need of light cosmetic updating: laminate floors, basic finishes and fitted wardrobes are in fair condition. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than central gas, so running costs may be higher; the building’s communal areas also show signs of needing cosmetic attention.
Externally the block is a mid-20th-century mixed-use building fronting a busy high street, so the outlook is urban with on-street parking only and no private garden. The area offers strong commuter connections, nearby green spaces (Mitcham Common, Figges Marsh) and local schools, but note local crime statistics are high and the wider area scores as deprived.
Practical running costs to budget for include an average service charge of approximately £1,800pa and a small ground rent of about £100pa. Broadband speeds are reported fast and mobile signal excellent, making the flat suitable for remote working and modern connectivity needs.
