One thing worth knowing is how convenient the location is for transport, particularly being so close to East Croydon Station, the tram network and local bus routes, which makes getting around very easy. It is also helpful to know that having supermarkets like Tesco and Sainsbury’s nearby makes day-to-day living quite straightforward.
