This bright one-bedroom apartment on Mitcham Lane offers an attractive, move-in-ready option for a first-time buyer or investor seeking easy access to south London amenities. Set on the second floor of a period terrace, the flat delivers a modern open-plan kitchen-living area that opens to a small balcony, generous bedroom and a contemporary bathroom. Neutral decor and integrated appliances mean minimal immediate work is required.
The location is a key strength: Penwortham Primary and Graveney School are nearby, Moyser Road’s cafés and independent shops are moments away, and Streatham Common station sits about 0.5 miles from the door. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit home-working, while regular buses on Mitcham Lane provide direct links into Tooting and Streatham.
Practical matters are straightforward: the property is chain free and sits on a long lease (approximately 136 years remaining), making purchase processes simpler than average leasehold transactions. Council tax is described as low, and there is no flood risk.
Considerations: the flat is a compact one-bedroom suited to a single occupant or couple rather than a family. Recorded crime levels locally are above average for the borough — buyers should inspect the street and communal access for personal security. As a leasehold property, buyers should confirm service charge and ground rent details during the offer stage. Overall, this is a convenient, well-presented urban flat with good rental and owner-occupier appeal.
