A bright two-double-bedroom ground-floor maisonette offering 900 sq ft of period proportions and private outdoor space on a desirable Streatham Hill road. The front reception room makes the most of the bay window, high ceilings and original fireplace; the layout includes a modern kitchen, a recently refurbished Victorian-style bathroom, and generous bedroom storage. A recently converted cellar provides practical utility space with plumbing and appliances already installed.
The secluded south-facing garden is a genuine asset for inner‑London living, accessed directly from the rear bedroom and a side gate. Street parking is readily available immediately outside. Practical details are favourable: a long lease (122 years), modest ground rent (£150 p.a.), mains gas boiler and double glazing (install date unknown). There is no flood risk and broadband and mobile signals are strong.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold and formed from a Victorian terrace with solid brick walls and assumed lack of cavity insulation — future energy upgrades may be desirable. The area is classified as inner-city cosmopolitan with good transport links to Brixton and central London, while local socio-economic indicators show pockets of deprivation; overall crime levels are average. This flat will suit families or buyers seeking a well-presented period home with outside space, or investors targeting long-lease, tenant-friendly stock in Streatham Hill.
