This two-bedroom first-floor flat sits in a Victorian semi on South Island Place, offering spacious rooms and period character with contemporary updates. The apartment extends to about 1,047 sq ft, with high ceilings, a modern kitchen-diner, and a reception opening onto a south-facing balcony that brings good natural light.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (share of freehold) and a large, accessible loft that adds storage or conversion potential (subject to consent). Transport is excellent: Oval Underground (Northern line) is an easy walk and multiple bus routes connect to central London. Local amenities, parks and several well-regarded schools are within easy reach.
Buyers should note the EPC rating of D and the building’s solid brick walls with assumed no cavity insulation, which may mean higher running costs and potential retrofit work. The wider area scores as very deprived, so buyers wanting quieter, more affluent surroundings should consider location accordingly. The layout includes one shower room plus a separate WC, and the flat would benefit from targeted refurbishment to maximise resale or rental value.
Overall, this property suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a roomy, characterful flat close to transport links, with clear scope to add value through energy and cosmetic improvements.
