Set on the first floor of a striking Victorian conversion, this compact two-bedroom flat offers a low-maintenance central London base with its own private balcony. The reception room is bright and practical; a separate, modern kitchen and a stylish bathroom mean the home is ready to move into with minimal immediate work required. The larger bedroom opens onto the balcony, adding usable outdoor space for plants or a morning coffee.
The layout is linear and efficient, suiting a single professional, couple or buy-to-let investor seeking straightforward accommodation close to Streatham Hill station and local amenities. Telford Park conservation area, shops, cafés and frequent buses to Brixton and Balham are all within easy walking distance. The building’s period character and contemporary interior finish combine traditional appeal with everyday convenience.
Important practical points are disclosed: the property is leasehold with 87 years remaining (seller will extend the lease as part of the sale), a yearly service charge of about £1,500 and annual ground rent of approximately £300. The apartment is relatively small at c.567 sq ft and the linear plan produces modest room sizes. There’s no off-street parking and external walls are likely uninsulated (solid brick construction), which may affect heating costs and future insulation works.
This home is best for buyers prioritising location, character and move-in readiness over generous internal space. For those wanting a low-fuss London two-bed with private outdoor space and strong transport links, it represents a well-located option; buyers who need long lease terms, off-street parking or larger rooms should weigh the lease length and footprint carefully.
