Practical ownership is strong: share of freehold, a very long lease (circa 945 years) and low annual service charges (about £1,044). An allocated off-street parking space and quick walking access to Sanderstead Station deliver real commuter convenience, while fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern working from home.
Notable considerations are the compact internal size (approximately 379 sq ft) and lack of private garden or balcony — outdoor space is communal only. Heating is via electric storage heaters and glazing pre-dates 2002, which may affect running costs compared with newer systems. As a flat in a small block, communal management and service charges apply.
