A compact one-bedroom flat in central Sutton that suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry to the local market. The property comes with a very long lease (987 years), an allocated off-street parking space and a low service charge (£800), making monthly costs predictable and ownership straightforward.
The apartment is small (436 sq ft) and arranged as two main rooms, offering bright, airy living within a well-maintained late-20th-century block. Its location is a practical strength: a short walk to Sutton High Street amenities and good transport links, including Sutton Station, ideal for commuting or city access.
Practical considerations to note: heating is electric via room heaters rather than a gas central system, which can increase running costs. The wider area records higher crime levels, so buyers should factor in personal security and insurance costs. Overall this is a low-risk buy structurally (double glazing installed post-2002, cavity wall insulation assumed) and is offered chain-free, making it move-in ready for a new owner or a straightforward rental investment.
