This ground-floor, one-bedroom apartment offers a straightforward, affordable entry into SW17 living. Set within a purpose-built development from the late 1990s/early 2000s, the property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and neutral decor — ready for immediate occupation or light updating.
Practical features include an allocated off-street parking space, communal garden and good built-in storage. The flat is 410 sq ft, compact but well laid out with a reception room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. Chain-free sale makes for a quicker transaction for first-time buyers or investors.
Location is a major benefit: a short walk to Balham and Tooting Bec stations for Northern Line and national rail services, plus easy access to shops, cafés and Wandsworth Common. Nearby schools include several well-rated primaries and secondaries, useful for buyers planning longer-term stays.
Material considerations: the apartment is leasehold (buyers should check remaining term and service charges). Broadband speeds are reported slow; urban noise and an above-average local crime rate should be noted for those sensitive to security. The overall size is small, so the layout suits someone seeking an affordable central location rather than generous living space.
