Summary - Flat 683, 18 Wandsworth Road SW8 2JB
1 bed 1 bath Studio
Compact investment close to transport links and riverside parks.
Moments from Vauxhall and Nine Elms transport hubs
This compact studio on the fourth floor offers a straightforward rental opportunity in a busy Vauxhall location close to the Thames. The open-plan layout fits a double bed plus dining area, and the fitted kitchen comes with smart appliances — practical for short-let or long-let tenants.
Location is the main draw: moments from Vauxhall and Nine Elms transport links, abundant local shops and amenities, and green spaces such as Riverside Gardens and Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support work-from-home or streaming tenants.
Financially the flat is set up as a leasehold with an estimated 5.8% yield, making it of interest to buy-to-let investors. Note the annual service charge (around £2,450) and electric room heaters as the main fuel source; both affect running costs and tenant appeal. Crime levels in the area are relatively high, which may influence insurance and tenant screening.
The property was built circa 2003–2006 and has double glazing (install date unknown). The apartment is small (approximately 363 sq ft) and will suit single professionals or couples rather than families. There is potential to improve rental value with modest cosmetic upgrades, but any investor should factor in service costs and heating limitations when modelling returns.
