2 bed flat to rent

Croydon Road, London SE20

Property Reference: 3036251.

Set beneath a run of Victorian gables on a leafy stretch of Croydon Road, this top-floor two-bedroom apartment is built for people whose diaries don't leave room for a difficult commute. Two rail stations, a direct Overground line towards the City, and supermarket all sit within a few minutes on foot, while inside, morning light spills through twin dormer windows into a reception room that runs the length of the flat, giving this top-floor apartment a sense of space and calm that's hard to find on a busy commuter street. For a working professional or a small family after room to grow, it's a flat that feels like home at the end of a long day.
