Light-filled two-bedroom flat near Clapham Common and Abbeville Village..
Top-floor Victorian conversion with 708 sq ft of living space
Light-filled and characterful, this top-floor two-bedroom Victorian conversion offers 708 sq ft of well-planned living for first-time buyers or young professionals. Vaulted ceilings and Velux skylights create an airy reception space while the open-plan kitchen/lounge is configured for entertaining and everyday life. High-spec appliances (Miele/Bosch) and a Vaillant boiler mean the core mechanicals and kitchen are strong selling points.
Practical benefits include a share of freehold with a very long lease (993 years), below-average service charge, soundproofed double-glazed windows, built-in storage, and communal bike shed. The location is a major draw: a short walk to Clapham South underground, Abbeville Village cafés and shops, and the green space of Clapham Common.
Be clear about the material negatives. The flat is top-floor with stair access only — no lift — which may limit convenience for some buyers. There is a single bathroom, broadband speeds are only average, and the exact install date of the double glazing is unknown. Local crime levels are above average for the area and should be considered when comparing neighbourhoods.
Overall this apartment suits buyers seeking a bright, stylish home close to transport and local leisure, who prioritise light, period features and quality finishes over ground-floor ease and ultra-fast broadband.
