Summary - Flat 18 Le Chateau, 18, Chatsworth Road CR0 1HA
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright second-floor flat near East Croydon with private garage and communal garden.
Chain free with 974-year lease
Set on the second floor of the Le Chateau development, this chain-free two-bedroom apartment offers bright, well-proportioned rooms and practical living in central Croydon. A generous reception room benefits from wide windows and city-facing views, while the separate kitchen provides good storage and workspace for everyday cooking.
Two double bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate WC make this layout comfortable for a first home or sharer. Extras include a private garage for secure parking or storage and access to a communal garden, both useful in a built-up location. The flat sits close to East Croydon station, local shops and good transport links, and broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Buyers should note the building dates from the 1950s–60s and the walls are solid brick with no assumed insulation, so upgrading for improved thermal performance may be worthwhile. Heating uses warm-air mains gas and the glazing is double, install date unknown. The area has higher crime and significant local deprivation, which may affect some buyers’ priorities.
On balance this is a pragmatic purchase: a long lease (974 years) and a modest service charge support straightforward ownership, while the property’s location and flexible layout make it suited to first-time buyers seeking strong transport links and future refurbishment potential.
