A modern two-double-bedroom apartment in the heart of Tooting, suited to first-time buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in urban home. The open-plan living space feels bright and practical, with contemporary finishes, integrated kitchen units and wood-effect floors that suit current rental and owner-occupier markets.
Practical benefits include lift access, a communal roof terrace and a long lease of 109 years, giving ownership security unusual for this price band. The flat sits in a mixed-use brick-and-glass development on a main road corner, with fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and Tooting High Street amenities almost on the doorstep.
Buyers should note the service charge and ground rent (approximately £2,368 and £250 per year) and that there is no private outdoor space. The property sits in an area with very high recorded crime levels; viewings and decisions should reflect local safety considerations.
Overall this apartment offers a sensible, well-located entry into SW17 for those who prioritise transport, shops and contemporary living. There is modest scope to add value by upgrading kitchen or bathroom finishes, making it appropriate for both first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors prepared to manage communal costs.
