This ground-floor two-bedroom garden flat has been newly renovated and is offered chain free, making it an ideal purchase for first-time buyers or buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in home. The 22-foot open-plan kitchen/living room with bi-folding doors creates a bright social space that extends directly onto a private, low-maintenance garden. Two double bedrooms and a modern bathroom complete the practical layout within a compact 521 sq ft footprint.
The location is a strong selling point: a short walk to Moyser Road’s cafés, bars and shops, and about 0.4 miles from Streatham Common and Streatham mainline stations for fast links into central London. Several highly rated primary and secondary schools are nearby, including two Ofsted ‘Outstanding’ primaries, which will suit families with young children.
Practical notes: the property is leasehold with a very long remainder (981 years) and has double glazing, though installation date is unknown. The building dates from the 1930s–1940s and has solid brick walls with assumed lack of cavity insulation, which may affect heating efficiency. Crime in the area is above average, and the flat’s compact overall size means storage and entertaining space are limited.
For buyers prioritising a move-in-ready flat with a private garden, excellent local transport and strong school options, this apartment offers straightforward value. Investors should note the small size and single bathroom when assessing rental appeal, while buyers conscious of running costs may want to check insulation and heating performance.
