A practical entry into ownership in central Crawley, this ground-floor one-bedroom offers a secure long lease (116 years) and a private patio for direct outdoor access. Built in 2016 and presented in good condition, the open-plan living area includes an integrated kitchen with space for a small dining table — a sensible layout for a first home or buy-to-let starter.
Available as a 65% shared ownership purchase at £139,750 with a monthly rental top-up of £219.85, the flat is chain free and has a clear route to full ownership (full market value £215,000). Service charges apply: stated at £203.43 per month (c. £2,184 annually) and a small ground rent of £240 per year — factor these running costs into affordability calculations.
Be candid about the location: the property sits in an urban, culturally mixed area with above-average deprivation and a very high local crime rate. It does, however, benefit from excellent mobile signal, fast broadband, and immediate access to shops and transport links, making commuting and daily life straightforward.
This is best suited to first-time buyers seeking an affordable step onto the ladder or investors looking for a low-maintenance modern flat near transport hubs. The accommodation is compact (c. 399 sq ft), so prospective buyers should review room sizes to ensure they meet space needs.
