Summary - 25 FLAT 3 BIRDHURST RISE SOUTH CROYDON CR2 7EG
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Share of freehold, garage and handy commuter links for first-time buyers.
Two double bedrooms with generous proportions
A spacious two-double-bedroom ground-floor apartment in a period conversion, offering rare direct access to well-kept communal gardens and the convenience of an en bloc garage. The generous reception room and separate fitted kitchen give flexible living space suitable for both relaxing and working from home. With a share of freehold and an exceptionally long lease (981 years), the tenure provides long-term stability and control.
Positioned close to South Croydon Station, this home suits first-time buyers prioritising commuter convenience. Regular services to London Bridge and Victoria, plus quick connections at East Croydon, make daily travel straightforward. Local amenities include cafes, restaurants, parks and good primary and secondary schools nearby, while Lloyd Park and Croham Hurst Woods offer easy outdoor options.
Practical points are clear: the building retains original solid-brick walls without assumed cavity insulation, which may affect heating costs and future retrofit considerations. Broadband speeds are average and crime levels are typical for an inner-city cosmopolitan neighbourhood. A small ground rent (£40) applies and buyers should note a commission may be required on purchase.
Overall, this property blends period character, outdoor access and commuter-friendly location with secure parking and long lease security. It presents an accessible opportunity for a first home or an investor seeking reliable rental appeal, with modest practical upgrades possible to improve energy efficiency and modern comforts.
