Studio apartment with heritage in Croydon

Originally the vicarage to the church of St Mary Magdalene in Addiscombe, Croydon, this Grade II listed conversion building accommodates a studio apartment on the market with Townends in Croydon. St Mary's, as it is commonly known, still lies on the West of Canning Road in Croydon, with the old vicarage, now apartments, next door with the new vicarage in the grounds behind it.

St Mary's, an evangelical church, was founded in 1868 and built in 1869 by Edward Buckton Lamb. The vicarage, not being part of the original purchase, was brought in 1880 for £3,070. The vicarage was later moved to Havelock Road in 1948 before the new vicarage was constructed at the rear of the old one on Canning Road in 1983.

Flat 5, The Old Vicarage, 17 Canning Road, Croydon is on the market for £165,000 and it is situated within the new East India Conservation Area. This large studio apartment has an added mezzanine level and sun room and separate bathroom. Further details are available through Townends in Croydon.

This property is in a perfect location for the commuter with East Croydon mainline station under half a mile away offering travel into London Waterloo within 30 mintues.

Croydon offers a diverse range of entertainment, live music and arts venues as well as an eclectic mix of local traders at the Surrey Street Market together with national high street retailers in the Whitgift, Drummond and Centrale shopping malls.
