Buyers should note this is a leasehold property and the building dates from 1900–1929, so some period maintenance and potential updates may be required. Walls are original solid brick (assumed uninsulated) and the EPC is D (61), so there is scope to improve energy efficiency. Crime levels in the area are reported as above average, which may influence buyer choices.
Overall this apartment suits someone seeking an affordable London entry point with immediate occupancy and clear potential to personalise and upgrade energy performance and interior finishes.
