Spacious first-floor flat with private garden and long lease — ideal for first-time buyers..
Chain free one-bedroom first-floor flat, approx. 676 sq ft
A spacious one-bedroom first-floor flat in a Victorian mid-terrace, offered chain free with a long lease (approx. 132 years). The apartment spans approximately 676 sq ft and combines period character — sash windows, fireplace and wood flooring — with practical modern comforts such as double glazing, mains gas central heating and fast broadband.
Highlights include a large bedroom, a roomy separate kitchen and a private garden — unusual for a flat at this price. The property suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a well-located home with scope to personalise and add value through cosmetic updating or improved insulation.
Be honest about maintenance and location: the building’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, and the flat would benefit from some modernisation (decor, fittings and potential window/insulation upgrades). The wider area shows signs of deprivation and average crime levels, though local amenities, schools and commuter links are good and mobile signal is excellent.
Overall this is a cost-effective entry into Thornton Heath: a roomy period flat with outdoor space, a long lease and clear potential, priced for buyers who are prepared to carry out light-to-medium updating to unlock further value.
