This ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Normanhurst Court offers a compact, well-proportioned home in Sutton, walking distance to Sutton railway station and the town centre. The spacious reception room (19'2" x 12'3") and allocated parking are standout practical benefits for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The property is chain-free and sold with a share of freehold, easing the purchase process.
The layout includes an entrance hall with storage, separate fitted kitchen, double bedroom and family bathroom. Gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband/mobility signals suit modern living. Communal grounds and visitor parking sit immediately outside, and local schools and amenities are close by.
Notable considerations: the lease has 87 years remaining and the service charge is £1,046.80 per year; buyers should confirm any lender requirements for sub-90-year leases. The kitchen shows some dated elements and is compact, so buyers wanting a contemporary finish should budget for updating. There is no private garden – outdoor space is communal.
Overall this apartment works well as a practical first home or rental unit: convenient for transport links, low local crime and placed in an affluent, well-served area. Viewings will suit those prioritising location, parking and a roomy living area over private outdoor space or a newly refurbished kitchen.
