Summary - RUSPER COURT FLAT 40 CLAPHAM ROAD LONDON SW9 9EQ
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Contemporary, well-connected flat ideal for first-time buyers or renters.
Ground-floor flat with generous reception room and double bedroom
Ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Rusper Court, set within easy reach of Clapham North and Stockwell stations. The layout includes a generous reception room, a sizeable double bedroom and a modern fitted kitchen — presented in contemporary order and ready to move into. At 503 sq ft the home offers a comfortable first property or a lettable city pied-à-terre.
Running costs are partially covered: hot water and heating are included in the service charge, which currently totals £3,876 pa. The flat is leasehold with 87 years remaining and a small ground rent; these are important factors for mortgage and long-term planning. Constructed in the 1950s–60s from solid brick, the building likely lacks cavity wall insulation, which may affect energy efficiency and future upgrade costs.
The location is highly practical for city life — fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, frequent public transport, and several well-rated local primary and secondary schools nearby. Local amenities and green spaces are within walking distance, making daily errands straightforward. Crime levels are average and the wider area shows signs of deprivation, so buyers should view in person to assess neighbourhood fit.
Overall this flat suits a first-time buyer seeking a ready-to-live-in central London home or an investor looking for a straightforward rental in a transport-friendly location. Be aware of the substantial annual service charge and remaining lease length when evaluating affordability and resale prospects.
