A bright ground-floor conversion set within an attractive period building, this one-bedroom flat offers comfortable living across 517 sq ft. The bay-windowed reception and high ceilings bring character and natural light, while the double bedroom includes fitted wardrobes for useful storage. Residents can enjoy a communal garden and the option for furniture to remain, making the flat move-in ready for a first home or rental.
The property comes with a share of freehold and is offered with no onward chain, simplifying the purchase. Transport links are excellent: Streatham, Streatham Hill and Streatham Common stations are all within easy reach, with frequent services into central London and beyond. Local shops, cafés and green spaces such as Streatham Common and Tooting Bec Common are nearby, supporting a convenient, social lifestyle.
Important practical points are clear: the lease has around 68 years remaining, which may restrict mortgage options and will likely need extension to satisfy many lenders. Service charge and ground rent are low (£250 and £50 respectively), but the building’s solid-brick walls likely lack modern cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for possible heating and insulation improvements. Overall, the flat represents a sensible purchase for a first-time buyer or investor willing to address the lease and minor retrofit works for longer-term security and value uplift.
