A well-presented two-bedroom basement flat in a period semi, offered with vacant possession and ready to move into. The property sits moments from Streatham High Street, with fast transport links and local amenities on the doorstep — making it straightforward to let or to use as a London base.
The layout includes a generous lounge for entertaining, two double bedrooms and a fitted kitchen. At about 482 sq ft the home is compact but practical; modern decor is in place though the basement setting brings lower ceilings and typical basement considerations. EPC rating D and solid brick walls suggest scope for energy improvements (insulation) to increase comfort and running costs savings.
This is a leasehold investment with c.96 years remaining (125-year lease from 1995). The property is being sold at auction on 29 October 2025 — buyers should allow for the required 5% deposit and a buyers’ fee (4.8% of the price, minimums apply), and check the legal pack for service charge and ground rent review details.
Strong points are location, immediate vacant possession and clear rental appeal; material considerations include the basement location, EPC D, local high crime statistics and the auction sale process with associated non-refundable fees. Viewings and full legal checks are advised before bidding.
