Private garage parking space included in the sale
South-facing communal gardens and on-site residents' gym
Good built-in storage throughout; contemporary fitted kitchen
Leasehold with ~100 years remaining; ground rent £200 pa
Electric storage heaters — likely higher running costs than gas
Local area flagged as deprived with higher recorded crime rates
Bright top-floor apartment with practical space for everyday living and entertaining. The open-plan reception and Juliet balcony flood the living area with light, while two double bedrooms — principal with en-suite — and a separate family bathroom provide comfortable accommodation across 761 sq ft. Good built-in storage and contemporary finishes mean minimal immediate refurbishment is required.
Practical extras include a private garage parking space, residents’ gym, lift access and sunny south-facing communal gardens. The flat has modern double glazing and integrated kitchen appliances; Thameslink services from nearby Streatham Station give straightforward links to the City and West End.
Important considerations: this is a leasehold property with about 100 years remaining and a small ground rent of £200. Heating is via electric storage heaters, which can be more costly than gas alternatives. The wider area scores as deprived and local recorded crime is high; buyers should factor local context and safety measures into their decision.
Overall this apartment suits a first-time buyer or small household seeking a ready-to-move-in home with parking and transport convenience. It also presents a buy-to-let opportunity given the strong commuter links, but investors should weigh running costs and area factors when modelling returns.
