Summary - RYECROFT HOUSE FLAT 9 HAMILTON ROAD LONDON SW19 1JE
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, well-located flat ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
Top-floor two-bedroom apartment with private balcony
A top-floor two-bedroom apartment occupying a purpose-built block in Wimbledon’s popular Battles area. At about 654 sq ft the flat presents in good condition with wooden floors, double glazing, a private balcony and useful off-street parking — a straightforward, ready-to-move-into home for first-time buyers or a practical buy-to-let with strong local rental demand.
Practical details are favourable: a long lease (117 years remaining), no forward chain, mains gas central heating with a modern boiler, and an affordable Council Tax Band C. Annual outgoings include a service charge of approximately £1,776 and ground rent of £300 — reasonable for a communal block but important for budgeting.
The layout is well-proportioned for the size: a bright reception room and a generous main bedroom, with a smaller second bedroom suitable for a child or home office. The building dates from the mid-20th century and has double glazing added post-2002, though walls are solid brick without added cavity insulation. Expect typical upper-floor access and limited communal outdoor space; the modest footprint restricts extension potential.
Location is a key asset: excellent transport links, nearby shops, cinemas and highly regarded schools, making it attractive to buyers wanting convenient Wimbledon living. Note the local crime rate is above average — worth considering when comparing neighbourhoods. Overall this flat offers a low-hassle purchase with clear rental or owner-occupier appeal, balanced by everyday running costs and the block’s physical characteristics.
