Chain-free three-bed maisonette with private garden and long lease, close to Colliers Wood transport..
Chain-free with very long lease (approx. 899 years)
Private rear garden accessed from lower level
Three bedrooms, one bathroom — compact 707 sq ft footprint
Modern fitted kitchen and contemporary bathroom
Loft storage and double glazing included
EPC rating D; likely need for insulation improvements
On-street permit parking; limited parking availability
Local crime above average; area shows some deprivation
Set on Abbey Road, this three-bedroom first-floor maisonette pairs period character with contemporary fittings — ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a long-lease London home. The living/dining room to the front is bright, the kitchen is modern and well equipped, and a private rear garden provides outdoor space uncommon for flats in the area.
Practical strengths include loft storage, a very long lease (circa 899 years), low ground rent (£50 pa) and chain-free sale, which should make the purchase straightforward. Heating is gas-fired radiators and the property benefits from double glazing and fast broadband/mobile connectivity — useful for commuters and home-workers.
Be realistic about scale and running costs: the overall footprint is small (approx. 707 sq ft) and there is a single bathroom for three bedrooms. The EPC is D and the original solid-brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, so buyers wanting the best energy performance may face improvement work. On-street parking is by permit and space is limited in this built-up neighbourhood.
Location is a clear selling point: riverside walks, Merton Abbey Mills, local supermarkets and Colliers Wood/South Wimbledon Northern Line stations are within easy reach. The area has excellent schooling options nearby, but note local crime statistics are above average and the wider area shows pockets of deprivation — factors to consider for family buyers and investors assessing rental demand.
