Set within a handsome double‑fronted Victorian conversion on Elmbourne Road, this split‑level two‑bed flat offers generous room proportions and period character. Large windows and high ceilings create a bright living space, while the contemporary open‑plan kitchen/living room opens directly onto a south‑facing patio — a rare private outdoor space overlooking Tooting Bec Common.
The layout suits a couple or small family seeking a well‑connected home in an established Heaver Estate street. At 769 sq ft the accommodation feels spacious for the area, with two good‑sized bedrooms and a reception space arranged over ground and lower‑ground levels. The property is sold as a share of freehold, which can be advantageous for owners wanting longer‑term control of the building.
Buyers should note a few factual points: the EPC rating is D and the building appears to have solid brick walls with no added cavity insulation (assumed), so heating costs may be higher than modern builds. Broadband speeds are reported slow despite excellent mobile signal. Council Tax banding is not yet set and should be checked.
Positioned close to Balham High Road and both Balham and Tooting Bec stations, the flat benefits from excellent local amenities, parks and strong schools nearby. For those prioritising period features, outdoor space and commuter convenience, this property offers genuine appeal, though buyers wanting highly efficient fabric or fast broadband may need to budget for upgrades.
