This chain-free ground-floor two-bedroom flat offers a compact but practical London base with the rare benefit of a private garden. Positioned in a Victorian terrace, the apartment retains period character externally while interiors are refreshed with modern paint and laminate flooring, making it move-in ready for many buyers. The long lease (151 years) and low council tax keep ongoing costs predictable.
The layout is linear and efficient across approximately 589 sq ft, with a large bright living room, two double bedrooms and a fitted kitchen. Heating is by a mains-gas boiler and radiators; glazing is double but the installation date is unknown. Walls are original solid brick (likely without added cavity insulation), so consider potential heating costs or insulation upgrades if energy efficiency is a priority.
Local amenities and transport links are close by, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband—useful for commuters and those working from home. Nearby schools include several rated Outstanding, which will appeal to young families. The wider area is mixed, serving young families and students, and offers many shops, cafes and community facilities.
Buyers should note some material considerations: the neighbourhood records above-average crime and the area is classed as deprived, so check local reports and visit at different times. The property is small overall, so it suits first-time buyers, downsizers or investors rather than those needing extensive space. Overall, this flat presents a low-entry London purchase with outdoor space and clear potential for modest improvement works.
