Ground-floor two-bedroom flat with private terrace and garden access
This ground-floor two-bedroom flat in Crofton Park pairs compact, contemporary living with private outdoor space. The open-plan reception and modern kitchen are bright and well presented, with large windows and sliding doors that lead directly to a private terrace — uncommon for a flat of this size. The layout suits first-time buyers or couples seeking a low-maintenance home with outside space.
Practical details are straightforward: 592 sq ft (54.9 sqm), leasehold with 115 years remaining, an EPC rating of C, mains gas heating via boiler and radiators, and double glazing. Service charge and ground rent are modest at £600 pa and £250 pa respectively, and council tax is described as cheap. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the property sits close to Crofton Park station, cafés, shops and green spaces.
Size is the main constraint — rooms are compact and overall square footage is small — so this flat is best suited to buyers who prioritise location and outdoor access over generous living space. There are no reported flooding risks and the building was constructed relatively recently (2007–2011), but buyers should check installation dates for glazing and any warranties.
Nearby schools include several well-rated primaries and secondaries, and the neighbourhood offers a wide range of amenities. For a first-time buyer wanting an easy-to-run London base with a private terrace and good transport links, this property offers clear appeal and manageable running costs.
