A well-presented one-bedroom flat on the fourth floor of a well-maintained 1930s block, offering an easily manageable home or first-time purchase in SW11. The layout is naturally bright with a double bedroom, a well-proportioned living room and a compact fitted kitchen. Shared building amenities include a roof terrace, residents' parking, on-site gym and laundry facilities.
The property comes with a long lease (circa 170 years) and share of freehold, making ownership straightforward for buyers. Practical features include off-street parking and double glazing, and the location provides quick access to Clapham Junction and Wandsworth Town stations, Battersea Park and riverside routes into Chelsea.
Notable running costs and maintenance items are straightforward: an average annual service charge of around £2,000 and communal upkeep. The building’s construction era and assumed lack of wall insulation mean higher heating demand is possible despite gas central heating. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and may not meet current best standards.
This flat suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance central location with communal facilities and strong transport links. It offers immediate move-in condition with modest upgrade potential (insulation, glazing, cosmetic modernisation) to increase comfort and value.
