Ground-floor one-bedroom with garden and strong transport links.
Private garden and patio with garden shed
A ground-floor one-bedroom flat with private garden and clear scope for personalisation. The open-plan kitchen and reception opens directly onto a small patio and garden — a rare outside space for a flat at this price. At about 521 sq ft the layout suits a single buyer or couple seeking a workable first home or a rental investment.
The location is practical: between Streatham and Streatham Common stations with good bus links, fast broadband and local amenities including Tesco Extra and cafés along Streatham High Road. Several highly rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, which strengthens appeal to long-term buyers and renters.
The property requires renovation and will reward a buyer willing to modernise. Key positives include double glazing installed after 2002, a mains-gas boiler and 150 years remaining on the lease. Be aware of material considerations: the building’s solid brick walls likely lack insulation, the flat needs updating throughout, and the local area records higher-than-average crime levels. These factors affect renovation costs, comfort and rental premiums.
Overall this flat offers an affordable entry into SW16 with a private garden and strong transport links. It suits a first-time buyer or small-scale investor prepared to refurbish and add value, or anyone wanting a modest central-London home they can tailor to their taste.
