Summary - SHELBURNE HOUSE FLAT 10 FAYLAND AVENUE LONDON SW16 1SX
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Move‑in ready home with private parking and strong transport links.
Upper‑floor flat with lift and private south‑west balcony
Set on an upper floor with lift access, this two-bedroom flat offers bright living, a private south‑west balcony and leafy outlook—ideal for first-time buyers seeking turnkey comfort. The reception room is spacious enough for dining, the separate fitted kitchen is practical for everyday cooking, and both bedrooms are genuine doubles with built-in wardrobes. Recent building and plant work—renewed roof and a new boiler in the flat—reduce immediate maintenance worries.
Practical extras include private off-street parking with no permit required, double glazing and a modern bathroom with storage and heated towel rail. Transport links are strong: multiple rail and tube options nearby and frequent buses along Streatham High Road. Local schools rated Outstanding and Good are within reach, and green spaces such as Tooting Bec Common and Brockwell Park are close by.
Important points to note: this is a leasehold property with 86 years remaining and an average annual service charge of £2,165. The building is mid‑20th century solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation in the walls, which may affect running costs despite the new boiler and double glazing. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived, which may influence local amenities and long‑term value trends.
Overall, the flat offers a well‑presented, move‑in ready home with sensible running‑cost improvements already completed. It suits a first-time buyer or young couple wanting decent space, outdoor access and easy travel into central London, provided they are comfortable with the lease length and service charge level.
