Bright and compact, this newly renovated one-bedroom first-floor flat offers contemporary living in a period conversion. The open-plan reception with integrated kitchen and large windows makes efficient use of the 319 sq ft, creating an airy feel despite the modest footprint. The double bedroom includes an en suite shower room and fitted storage.
The property suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a low-maintenance city base close to Streatham High Road and green space at Tooting Bec Common. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and streaming. The building retains period character externally while interiors are finished in neutral, modern décor.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with 94 years remaining and an average service charge of £1,034 per year plus a ground rent of £508, which is high relative to the price. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central system, which may raise running costs. The overall size is small at 319 sq ft, so storage and layout expectations should reflect that.
The surrounding area is well served for shops, cafés and transport links, but local crime levels are reported as high; prospective purchasers should factor this into their decision and local viewing. For those wanting a move-in-ready, compact city flat with modern finishes and strong connectivity, this presents clear appeal — provided the lease and running costs are acceptable.
