Share of freehold with 949 years remaining on lease
Short walk to Clapham Common, Clapham Junction, Battersea Rise and Northcote Road

Set across a split-level layout, this 948 sq ft Victorian flat offers two double bedrooms, a generous reception and a large kitchen — all within easy walking distance of Clapham Common and Clapham Junction. The building’s period features (bay windows, original fireplaces, high ceilings) give the apartment character while large windows bring good natural light to main rooms.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (949 years) and share of freehold, a private garden, and convenient access to Battersea Rise and Northcote Road shops, cafés and transport links. The size and layout suit first-time buyers seeking a roomy home with potential to adapt or improve internal layouts.
Buyers should note measurable downsides: the property has an EPC rating of D, double glazing fitted before 2002 and the building’s timber-frame walls are recorded as having no insulation (assumed). Heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators. Local crime levels are reported as high and council tax is above average — factors to consider for household costs and security planning.
Overall this is a spacious, characterful two-bedroom flat in a desirable SW11 location that will appeal to buyers prioritising size, transport links and long lease security, but who are prepared to invest modestly in energy efficiency and modernisation.
