Summary - 156 AMESBURY AVENUE LONDON SW2 3AB
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Two-bedroom home with private south-facing garden and strong transport links.
Own front door and double reception convertible to third bedroom
Set over three floors in a red-brick Victorian terrace, this bright two-bedroom flat offers clear potential for a growing household or buyers seeking rental income. The property has its own front door, a double reception that can be used as a third bedroom, a modern kitchen and bathroom, and a south-facing private garden that brings excellent afternoon sun. The main bedroom sits on the top floor with an en-suite and useful storage.
Practical points are honest: the flat sits on a share of freehold but has only 84 years remaining on the lease, which will require prompt renewal action and associated cost. The building’s solid-brick wall construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for potential thermal upgrades. Council tax sits at a moderate level and the area is classified as deprived, though crime is average and mobile and broadband connectivity are strong.
Location is a key selling point for families and commuters. Streatham Hill and town centre amenities are within easy reach, with Streatham Hill station providing rail links and frequent buses to Brixton and central routes. Excellent local schools, including an Outstanding primary, add appeal for families. The property is best for buyers prepared to manage the short lease and undertake modest improvements to maximise value.
