FULL DESCRIPTION

Freehold Investment in Croydon: Four Self-Contained Flats, Fully Let at £62,400 a Year. Guide Price £700,000+.

THE OPPORTUNITY
A fully let freehold investment at 59 Coombe Road, Croydon CR0 1BR, offered at our Claridge's auction on 28 October 2026 with a guide price of £700,000+. The sale includes the entire freehold together with the leases of all four flats, so the buyer owns the whole building outright. The four flats produce £62,400 a year, a gross yield of approximately 8.9% at the guide price.

The neighbouring building, 57 Coombe Road, is offered in the same sale on the same terms, which gives an investor the chance to buy both.

THE PROPERTY
59 Coombe Road is a substantial semi-detached period building that has been converted into four self-contained one-bedroom flats over four floors. The building keeps attractive period features, and the flats are well proportioned, with kitchens, bathrooms, double glazing and separate services. There is off-street parking on the front forecourt.

Because the freehold and all four leases are sold together, a buyer has flexibility. They can hold the building as a single investment, or keep the leases in place, which may help with future refinancing or the sale of individual flats. Buyers should take legal advice on the best structure for their plans.

THE INCOME
All four flats are let at £1,300 per calendar month each, a total of £62,400 a year. At the guide price of £700,000, that is a gross yield of approximately 8.9%. Demand for one-bedroom flats close to Croydon's transport links remains strong. The tenancy details are in the legal pack.
