Long lease (987 years), share of freehold, nominal £1 ground rent

Solid brick construction assumed uninsulated – possible upgrade costs
Excellent location for Tooting Bec Common, schools and Balham services
Set within the sought-after Hyde Farm Estate, this two-double-bedroom first-floor apartment is a bright, well-proportioned home ideal for families who value green space and strong local schools. The front reception benefits from an Edwardian bay and high ceilings, creating a light, airy living and dining area. Tooting Bec Common, local shops and Balham station are all a short walk away.
The flat is practical and ready to live in: recently installed double glazing, gas central heating with radiators, and an EPC rating of C give a comfortable, energy-conscious base. The accommodation includes a fitted kitchen, a modern bathroom and a demised loft which offers excellent storage and scope for further value-adding conversion (subject to consents).
Notable positives on the tenure and running costs include a very long lease (987 years), share of freehold and nominal ground rent, together with affordable council tax. These make the property particularly attractive to buyers seeking security and lower ongoing charges in SW12.
Buyers should note the property’s modest overall size (approximately 595 sq ft) and a single bathroom, which may feel tight for some families. The building’s solid brick construction is assumed to have no cavity insulation, so buyers planning upgrades might factor in insulation and possible energy-efficiency improvements.
Overall, this is a characterful Edwardian apartment with period features, good natural light and clear potential for buyers who want a comfortable home close to parks, schools and Balham’s amenities.
