Summary - Academy Gardens, Croydon, CR0 CR0 6QH
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, commuter-friendly home near major transport hubs.
- Sixth-floor purpose-built flat with lift access
This sixth-floor, one-bedroom purpose-built flat offers a compact and practical home with excellent transport links. At about 485 sq ft the accommodation includes a bright reception room, modern fitted kitchen, bathroom, and a storage shed on the ground floor. Lift access and communal off-street parking add everyday convenience.
The location is a clear strength: tram links and East Croydon station are within easy reach, making commutes into central London straightforward. The flat benefits from mains gas central heating, UPVC double glazing and a contemporary kitchen — features that suit first-time buyers or investors seeking a lettable city residence.
Buyers should note material leasehold details and local context. The flat is offered leasehold with 87 years remaining; the stated maintenance charge is £890pa and a vendor-advised ground rent described as “10% pa” requires verification. The area scores as deprived with above-average crime levels, so factor neighbourhood context into running-cost and resale expectations.
Overall, this is a well-presented, transport‑focused city flat that suits someone wanting a low-maintenance base or an entry-level investment. The accommodation is tidy and move-in ready, but lease and service-charge details should be checked before committing.
