A spacious two-double-bedroom ground-floor maisonette offering generous living space and a large private garden in a quiet South Croydon road. The property benefits from its own gated entrance, off-street parking and a newly granted 999‑year lease — a rare blend of period character and long-term security.
Internally the layout is elongated and well-proportioned: a large reception, separate modern kitchen, additional study and two bathrooms. Original features include a bay window, high skirtings and ceiling details, while practical additions include double glazing and gas central heating. A versatile basement with a lightwell provides ample storage or hobby space but should be inspected for headroom, ventilation and damp-proofing if long-term use is planned.
Location is a key strength — within walking distance of South and East Croydon stations with direct links to Central London and Gatwick, plus good local schools and town-centre amenities. The property is sold chain-free, attractive to buyers who need a relatively quick move.
Notable considerations: the building dates from the early 20th century and has solid brick walls (likely without modern cavity insulation), so draughts and heating efficiency are possible concerns. The area records above-average crime compared with national levels; purchasers should factor this into insurance and security plans. Overall, the flat suits families or buyers seeking a large garden and substantial living area near strong transport links, with scope for improvement where insulation or basement upgrades are desired.
