*Vendor's comments:* "We were first attracted to this property because of its proximity to East Croydon Station and the easy access to London. East Croydon Station is only a 15-minute walk and there is a great train service into London from East Croydon. On viewing it for the first time, we knew it was the ideal cosy home for us and we’ve loved living here for almost 25 years. The icing on the cake has been lovely friendly neighbours on all sides.

It’s a lovely quiet street and is close to all amenities with a Co-Op, pharmacy, builders merchant and local shops within a 5-minute walk. Addiscombe is a stone's throw away and offers its own selection of shops and who could forget Ashburton Park?

The garden was also a big attraction and we have spent many summer days soaking up this peaceful serene space, gardening and watching the birds hustle around the bird feeder or squirrels scurrying along the garden fence.

In 2020 we refurbished the entire apartment and; replaced the tanking in all the outer walls, re-plastered all interior walls & ceilings, replaced electric wiring and fittings, installed recess lighting throughout, installed a new kitchen and bathroom, new boiler and central heating and new laminate flooring in all rooms.

The apartment has 2 bedrooms, and we are currently using the guest room as an office. It is an ideal quiet working space for anyone working from home. The Living room and Kitchen are open-plan and have a very spacious and yet cosy feel.

This has been a great home for us for the best part of 25 years and we now feel that we’ve lived and enjoyed the Urban life and are ready to opt for a more rural lifestyle. If you desire peace and quiet away from the hustle & bustle of city life but would still like easy access to London, then this would be the ideal place for you."
