This wide Victorian end-terrace on Elms Crescent offers genuine scope for a family to create a long-term home close to Abbeville Village. At about 2,350 sq ft across multiple storeys, its original period features and generous proportions provide a strong starting point for a sympathetic modernisation.
The property has been in the same family since 1952 and retains high ceilings, bay windows and decorative fireplaces. A longer-than-average rear garden and a wider footprint than typical terraces allow for sensible rear extension and internal reconfiguration (subject to planning).
Practical realities are clear: the house needs renovation and modern services to current standards, there is only one bathroom, and the solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation. Council tax is noted as quite expensive. Buyers who value location and character will see the bones and location as key value drivers.
For families, the location is a strong draw — excellent local schools, easy access to Clapham Common and Clapham South stations, and plentiful local amenities. Investors or developers will also recognise potential for added value through refurbishment and extension.
