Light-filled and recently refreshed, this split-level two-bedroom maisonette offers a practical London base with rare share-of-freehold security and a very long lease (c.998 years). Arranged over three levels, the apartment feels larger than many flats its size, with two reception rooms, a contemporary kitchen and bathroom, and generous double bedrooms. Large windows and neutral finishes make the accommodation move-in ready for a first-time buyer or professional couple.
Practical benefits include an en bloc garage and allocated resident parking — a real advantage in this part of Croydon — plus excellent transport links: East Croydon station and Lebanon Road Tram Stop are within easy walking distance for fast commutes into central London and Gatwick. Broadband speeds are average but mobile signal is excellent.
Buyers should note some external and communal drawbacks: the plot and private outside space are small, and the façade and surrounding development show mid‑century details that may suit some tastes but could benefit from external updating. There is an average local crime level and an annual service charge (approx. £1,044). The property sits in an inner-city, cosmopolitan area that suits commuters and investors rather than those seeking rural calm.
Overall this maisonette balances ready-to-live-in convenience with clear potential to add value through external or cosmetic improvements. It will particularly appeal to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors wanting a well-located, low-hassle London property with long leasehold security.
