Renovation-ready flat near East Croydon station ideal for first buyers or landlords.
Chain-free ground-floor flat with private rear garden
A ground-floor two-bedroom flat in St James’s Park, Croydon, offering a private rear garden and chain-free purchase. The layout includes an entrance hall, living room with garden access, kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms across 641 sq ft — a practical size for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and an extended new lease in progress.
The flat needs cosmetic refurbishment throughout: expect decorating, flooring updates and general modernisation to maximise value and comfort. The building dates from 1900–1929 with solid brick walls (no assumed insulation), so there is scope to improve energy efficiency. Service charge and ground rent apply (approx. £2,000 service charge; £75 ground rent).
Location is highly connected: East and West Croydon stations are within walking distance, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Local amenities, schools (including several rated Good or Outstanding) and bus routes are close by. Note the area records high crime and is classified as very deprived, which may affect resale or rental demand and insurance costs.
This home suits a buyer seeking a renovation project or an investor targeting Croydon’s rental market. With sensible updating and security measures, the property could deliver improved rental yield or an attractive owner-occupied home close to transport links.
