This ground-floor garden apartment occupies an average-sized footprint of about 933 sq ft within a handsome early-20th-century terrace. The home combines original period character — bay window, high ceilings, wood flooring and fireplaces — with a modern, open-plan kitchen/diner that opens directly onto a private patio garden. Two double bedrooms provide generous sleeping accommodation; built-in wardrobes in the principal bedroom add useful storage.
Practical strengths include a share of freehold, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Local transport is strong (Tooting Bec and Tooting Broadway nearby), and the area blends village-like streets with plentiful independent shops, cafés and green spaces such as Tooting Common. Several well-regarded schools are within easy reach, making the location attractive to families and first-time buyers.
Buyers should note this is a three-bedroom listing configured as two double bedrooms and an additional room — there is a single bathroom serving the apartment. The property dates from c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls likely lacking modern cavity insulation, so energy-efficiency upgrades (insulation, glazing) could be considered. Crime is above average in the locality; prospective purchasers should review local safety data.
Overall this is a characterful, well-presented ground-floor home offering outdoor space, transport convenience and scope to improve efficiency or personalise finishes.
