Bright, well-proportioned two-bedroom apartment in a distinctive 1930s Tudor Revival block, set moments from East Croydon station. The reception room benefits from original parquet flooring and large windows that flood the space with natural light, while two large bedrooms offer comfortable sleeping spaces for a couple or small family.
Practical benefits include a long lease (162 years remaining), chain-free sale and an efficient location for commutes, shops and nearby schools. The block appears well maintained and the flat looks out over communal green areas rather than busy streets, adding a calming aspect to city living.
Buyers should note the property’s heating and thermal standards: primary heating is by electric room heaters and the building has secondary glazing only, with solid brick walls that likely have little or no cavity insulation. These factors could mean higher running costs and potential improvement work for those seeking better energy performance.
Overall this is a solid entry-level purchase in a popular Croydon location. It will suit first-time buyers looking for character and transport links, or investors seeking tenancy potential, but buyers wanting a fully modern, energy-efficient home should budget for upgrades.
