A practical first-step onto the property ladder, this top-floor apartment sits in a quiet cul-de-sac on the Mitcham/Tooting border. The flat offers a compact, usable layout with a separate kitchen, 14ft reception and a double bedroom — suited to single buyers or couples seeking easy access to central Tooting and regular rail links.
The building is modern (constructed c.1996–2002) with double glazing and communal gardens. Off-street/permit parking and nearby bus services make day-to-day life straightforward; frequent Thameslink and local trains connect to central London. Several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach.
There are costs and maintenance matters to note: the bathroom requires refurbishment and shows damp/mould evidence; heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central system. Service charges run at approximately £1,600 per year and Council Tax band B applies. The lease is long (954 years), reducing long-leaseer concerns for buyers.
This apartment suits a purchaser looking for an affordable London base with good transport links who is willing to carry out light updating. It also offers straightforward rental potential for investors because of the location and transport access, but the bathroom condition and electric heating should be factored into running costs and refurbishment budgets.
