This mid-terraced three-bedroom house on Foss Road offers practical family accommodation across two storeys with 1,058 sq ft of space and a private rear garden. The layout includes a reception/dining room, separate modern kitchen, ground-floor WC and three first-floor bedrooms — a straightforward plan suited to everyday family life or a rental let. The property is chain-free and freehold, simplifying purchase timelines.
Location is a genuine strength: within reach of Tooting Broadway and Earlsfield stations and close to a wide range of local shops, cafés and bus routes. Broadband and mobile signal are both strong, and several nearby primary and secondary schools have good Ofsted ratings, making the area convenient for commuters and families.
Buyers should note clear drawbacks: the neighbourhood shows signs of higher-than-average crime and very high area deprivation, which will influence long-term resale and rental appeal. The mid‑1970s build appears to have cavity walls with no known insulation, which could mean higher heating costs and potential retrofit expense. Council tax is above average for the borough.
Overall, this property will suit first-time buyers wanting an immediately usable home they can personalise, or investors targeting a let close to transport links. The ready-to-move-in kitchen and private garden reduce short-term spend, but budget should be allowed for thermal improvements and to factor local area considerations when assessing value and yields.
