Summary - Flat 1, 48, Northcote Road CR0 2HU
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Period character, ready to occupy with clear uplift potential.
Two double bedrooms in first-floor period conversion
A bright two-double-bedroom first-floor period conversion in a well-connected Croydon location, offered with no onward chain and shared freehold. The open-plan reception/kitchen, ornamental fireplace and engineered timber floors give immediate character and a ready-to-live-in feel while leaving scope for cosmetic modernisation to increase value.
Practical benefits include access to the loft, mains gas central heating and fast broadband and mobile signal. Local amenities are close by — shops, supermarkets, buses and Selhurst train station are within easy reach, and several Good-rated primary and secondary schools are nearby.
Notable constraints are the small overall size (596 sq ft) and an 88-year lease remaining, which may affect mortgage options and long-term value unless extended. The area shows higher crime levels and relative deprivation, and the building’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, so energy improvements may be needed. EPC rating D is shown.
This home suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking an affordable entry into Croydon with immediate occupancy and a clear scope for modest upgrading. The property is straightforward to view and move into, but purchasers should factor in lease extension costs, potential insulation work and local-area considerations.
