Summary - 165a Melrose Avenue SW19 8AU
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious one-bedroom with loft potential near Wimbledon Park and transport links.
New 125-year lease included with the sale
Set within the sought-after Wimbledon Park grid, this well-presented first-floor flat combines Edwardian character with practical modern comforts. At around 708 sq ft it feels notably spacious for a one-bedroom property, with a lateral sitting room framed by period features and a kitchen/dining area large enough for everyday dining.
A key advantage is the demised loft, already in the same ownership and ready for conversion subject to planning and building regulations. Buyers looking to add space or increase value will see clear potential here; the property is being sold with a new 125-year lease, providing long-term security.
The bedroom offers excellent built-in storage and the apartment benefits from double glazing and gas central heating. Important factual points: the building is solid-brick Edwardian construction (circa 1900–1929) with assumed lack of wall insulation, and any loft extension will require the usual consents.
Location is a strong selling point — immediate access to Wimbledon Park, local artisan shops and cafés, good transport links, very low local crime, and a cluster of well-regarded schools nearby. This flat suits a first-time buyer wanting character and future growth potential, or an investor targeting strong local demand.
