Spacious one-bedroom with private patio, close to Clapham Common and transport links.
Private patio garden ideal for outdoor dining or relaxing
Spacious 818 sq ft one-bedroom garden flat, generous bedroom storage
Edwardian bay window and high ceilings in the reception room
Recently renovated kitchen with breakfast bar and ample storage
EPC rating E; likely higher heating costs, energy improvements advisable
Leasehold with circa 88 years remaining; ground rent £200 per year
Council tax above local average — factor into running costs
Solid brick construction; assumed no cavity insulation
This well-presented one-bedroom garden flat offers spacious living (818 sq ft) and a private patio garden on a quiet residential street just off Lavender Hill. The reception room retains Edwardian character with high ceilings and a bay window, while the recently renovated kitchen provides modern storage, a breakfast-bar layout, and direct garden access — a rare combination of period charm and contemporary finish.
The bedroom is generously sized with large built-in wardrobes and a pleasant garden aspect. Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, and no local flooding risk. The location is strong for first-time buyers: Clapham Common green space nearby, Clapham Junction and Clapham Common stations within easy reach, plus an array of shops, cafés and well-rated schools.
Important factual considerations: the property is leasehold with approximately 88 years remaining, attracts a small ground rent (£200) and sits in a council-tax band above the local average. The EPC is rated E and the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so heating costs and potential energy-improvement work should be factored into budgets.
Overall, this flat suits buyers seeking a move-in-ready home that combines character and a private outdoor space, while being pragmatic about lease length and future energy upgrades.
