Set on the ground floor of a Victorian terrace in Clapham Old Town, this newly renovated two-bedroom flat combines period character with contemporary living. An open-plan reception and modern integrated kitchen create a bright, social heart with bi-fold doors opening directly to a private patio garden — ideal for relaxed indoor-outdoor entertaining minutes from Clapham Common.
Both bedrooms are doubles with built-in storage and the property benefits from a sleek bathroom suite, double glazing and gas central heating. The sale includes a Share of Freehold and the purchase is being handled via auction, providing a clear route to ownership with a prior-auction purchase option.
Significant recent work has been completed: full structural remediation is supported by a Certificate of Structural Adequacy, a 10-year contractor warranty, and a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee, with ongoing building insurance in place. These protections reduce long-term risk and offer reassurance uncommon at this price point.
Buyers should note local context: the immediate area records very high crime levels and higher-than-average deprivation, which may influence future resale or rental returns. The building is timber-frame and, as built, assumed to have no insulation in the walls; there is also some potential for damp or mould on the exterior—evidence of age-related maintenance typical for Victorian terraces.
This apartment will suit a buyer seeking a ready-to-move-into, characterful home with strong transport links and outdoor space — or an investor attracted to Clapham’s rental market and the security of recent structural guarantees.
