Light-filled period living meets practical London convenience in this split-level two-bedroom apartment on Harbut Road. Set over the first and second floors of a Victorian conversion, the flat offers distinctive high ceilings, a large front bay window, decorative mouldings and a feature fireplace that lend immediate character and an airy feel. At approximately 879 sq ft, the accommodation feels generous for central London and includes a sizeable reception room and a well-equipped kitchen/breakfast room with integrated appliances.
The principal bedroom occupies the top floor and benefits from large picture windows, skylights and built-in wardrobes, with easy access to a decked roof terrace — a useful private outside space for dining and relaxing. The second bedroom and family bathroom are on the main living level, keeping the sleeping and social spaces neatly separated. The property is offered with a long lease (around 189 years) and a share of freehold, simplifying tenure concerns for a purchaser.
Practical considerations are straightforward: there is no garden and only one bathroom, which may be limiting for some buyers. The building is older (pre-1900) with solid brick walls and assumed lack of cavity insulation, and the EPC is currently D — both facts that point to potential energy-improvement works if desired. Local crime rates are above average; buyers should factor local safety and security measures into their decision.
Transport and amenities are major strengths. Clapham Junction station is a short walk away, providing fast links to Victoria and Waterloo, while Wandsworth Common and a wide choice of shops, cafes and schools are close by. For a first-time buyer seeking character, space and excellent connectivity, this flat offers a practical and attractive London base with clear scope to modernise and personalise.
