Living at Ten Degrees Croydon isn’t just about exceptional apartments and convenience—it’s about becoming part of a vibrant community. In this interview, one of our long-term residents shares their personal experience of life at Ten Degrees.
A Pet-Lover’s Paradise
“As a dog owner, Ten Degrees is a dream come true. Our dog, Eva, absolutely loves it here. In our old neighbourhood, she only had a few friends, but here, she’s got about 55! She’s become a little bit of a local celebrity among the other dogs, and they all get along so well.”
A True Sense of Community
“One of the most remarkable things about living at Ten Degrees is the sense of community. There’s a residents’ WhatsApp group with about 180 people, and everyone is friendly and eager to help out or organise activities. Whether it’s a spontaneous trip to the park or a community event, there’s always something happening. Even when we pass each other in the lift, people are always smiling and saying hello, which makes everyday life here so warm and welcoming.”
Why We’re Here to Stay
“We’ve lived here for over two years, and honestly, we have no plans to move out. The building is immaculately maintained, and management takes great care to keep everything spotless. Whenever friends or family visit, they’re amazed by how well-kept and stylish everything is.”
East Croydon Station being just a two-minute walk away is another major perk. Whether we’re heading to Central London (which takes just 15 minutes to get to London Bridge) or travelling internationally via Gatwick, the location is perfect. Boxpark is right across the street, offering a variety of food options and a lively atmosphere, and for something more refined, we love going to Fern, the gastropub in the building. It’s perfect for celebrating special occasions without even leaving home.
Top-Notch Amenities and Seamless Living
Although the apartments may be smaller than a traditional house, Ten Degrees offers so much flexibility. We recently hosted a gathering in the residents’ dining room, and it was fantastic! Booking spaces like that through the app is super convenient. Even with around 30 guests, there was plenty of space, and our family loved the experience.
“The maintenance service here is also top-tier. Over the years, we’ve only had a few minor issues—things like broadband or the oven needing repair. Every time, it’s been resolved quickly, sometimes within an hour! The app makes it easy to request maintenance, and the team here knows the residents by name, which makes it feel even more personal.”
A Striking Building Connected to the Heart of London
“The first thing that drew us to Ten Degrees was the building itself. The deep bottle-green exterior really stands out from the other buildings in the area, most of which are grey and uninspiring. It’s bold, unique, and feels modern in the best way possible. Then there’s the location. My wife commutes to Central London, and it’s incredibly quick and easy for her. We love going to the theatre, exploring Borough Market, or just enjoying the city, and it only takes about 30 minutes to reach the West End from here. Gatwick Airport is also just 20 minutes by train, which is perfect for when we travel internationally.”
Why Ten Degrees is the Best Choice
“We did look at other developments in East Croydon before deciding on Ten Degrees, and honestly, there’s no comparison. Other places might be four stars, but Ten Degrees is definitely five stars. The quality of the building, the sense of community, and the incredible amenities make it worth every penny. For us, it’s the best place to live in East Croydon, and we wouldn’t choose anywhere else.”
