Step inside this contemporary one-bedroom apartment on Gaumont Place and you’ll find a bright, efficiently planned home ideal for a first-time buyer or couple. The third-floor position (with lift) opens onto a light-filled living room, a compact modern kitchen, double bedroom and a private balcony for morning coffee. Finishes are recent and neutral, with underfloor heating throughout and engineered floors that make the space feel fresh and low-maintenance.
The building provides convenient amenities: lift access, communal gardens, roof terrace, and on-site facilities including concierge and a gym. Transport links are close by — Streatham Hill station and local bus routes are within easy reach — and local shops, restaurants and services line the nearby high street. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the property sits in an area popular with New EU tech workers and an inner-city cosmopolitan crowd.
Practicalities are transparent: the flat is leasehold (990 years remaining), with an average annual service charge of £2,472 and ground rent around £300. The apartment footprint is compact (approximately 445 sq ft), so it’s best suited to single occupancy or couples who prioritise location and modern, low-upkeep interiors over expansive living space. There is no flooding risk and council tax is described as affordable.
Be aware of two important considerations: this part of the city records higher crime levels than average, and the main heating runs via a community scheme rather than an independent boiler. Both factors are worth reviewing during your viewing and conveyancing. If you want a well-presented, low-maintenance London base with good transport links and contemporary styling, this offers clear value at the asking price.
