This chain-free, freehold end-of-terrace offers a compact, well-laid-out two-bedroom home in the Forestdale area of Croydon. The living room is bright and proportioned for everyday family use, while the modern kitchen provides practical cooking space and comfortable storage. A private rear garden and garage en-bloc add useful outdoor and parking options for this size of property.
The house is an attractive option for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a straightforward purchase with low ongoing costs. The service charge is approximately £430 per year and council tax is moderate. The property benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband; there is no flood risk and local crime levels are very low.
Accommodation is modest but efficient across two floors: two double bedrooms, a three-piece bathroom and a reception room make this suitable for small families or sharers. The plot is small and the overall footprint is average-sized (about 689 sq ft), so the home will suit those wanting low-maintenance living rather than large garden or expansive rooms.
Buyers should note the house dates from the 1950s–60s and, while presented in generally good order, may benefit from cosmetic updating or targeted improvements to maximise long-term value. Local amenities include good primary schools, bus links and nearby shops, making everyday life convenient for families and commuters.
