This well-presented two-bedroom upper-floor flat offers a practical, contemporary home close to Crawley town centre and the railway station. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area opens onto a private balcony overlooking well-maintained communal gardens, creating a bright spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The main bedroom includes an en-suite shower room, with a separate main bathroom serving the rest of the home.
Practicalities are clear: the property is a leasehold apartment of about 803 sq ft with 242 years remaining on the lease, an allocated parking space and access to communal outdoor areas. Modern double glazing, integrated kitchen appliances and fast broadband make it ready for everyday living and home working.
Buyers should note the running costs: a service charge around £2,172 pa and a ground rent of £1,000 pa. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can affect bills. The wider area is classified as deprived with very high local crime levels; weigh local safety and insurance costs alongside the convenience to transport and amenities.
This flat suits a first-time buyer or commuter wanting a low-maintenance, modern apartment with good transport links and pleasant communal gardens. Those seeking lower ongoing charges or gas central heating may prefer to compare alternatives or factor refurbishment and running costs into their budget.
