Set in a striking 1930s Art‑Deco block, this two-double-bedroom flat blends period character with practical living. Original features such as an in‑situ fireplace, mosaic details and built‑in storage give the home charm, while the claw‑foot bath and well‑equipped kitchen meet modern needs. At around 686 sq ft the layout suits a small family or professionals seeking easy transport links and green space on the doorstep.
Location is a clear asset: Streatham Hill Station is a three‑minute walk, with fast connections across London, and Tooting Bec and Streatham Commons are only minutes away. Local schools rated Good or Outstanding are close by, and a wide range of shops, cafés and restaurants is within easy reach. The flat includes shared garden access for outside space.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with c.102 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £2,818 and a small ground rent of £80. The building has secondary glazing and solid brick walls that likely lack modern cavity insulation; consider potential improvement costs if you plan to upgrade thermal performance. Crime in the immediate area is above average — practical security measures may be advisable.
Overall this home offers immediate liveability with scope to personalise: a characterful, well‑located two‑bedroom apartment that will appeal to families and first‑time buyers wanting strong transport links and nearby green spaces.
