This top-floor, newly renovated two-bedroom apartment sits within a modern mixed-use block just a short walk from Caterham town centre and the station. The lounge opens onto a full-length private balcony; both double bedrooms have Juliette balconies. The fitted kitchen and refitted bathroom are contemporary and move-in ready, with lift access and gated parking included.
Practical running costs are clear: an average service charge of £1,502 and ground rent of £250 pa, with 82 years remaining on the lease. The flat is compact at about 614 sq ft and has no private garden, so it will suit buyers seeking low-maintenance, central living rather than extensive space.
Location is a strong selling point for commuters and shoppers — direct trains to London via East Croydon, multiple supermarkets nearby, and local schools highly regarded. Note the property sits over commercial premises adjacent to a supermarket, which can bring daytime activity and some noise. Crime levels in the area are currently higher than average, so factor that into security considerations despite the gated entrance and controlled access.
Overall, this property offers a tidy, contemporary home or an investment-ready flat with good transport links and local amenities. The shorter-than-ideal lease length and local crime statistics are important practical considerations but are offset by modern finishes, lift access and private parking.
