Set within a 1930s Art Deco block on Wimbledon Hill, this raised ground-floor flat offers straightforward, comfortable living for a first-time buyer or someone downsizing. The reception room opens onto a private south‑easterly balcony that brings morning and early-afternoon sun. An open-plan kitchen and dining area provide a modern feel while preserving period character in the communal hallways and façade.
Practical running costs are partly communal: communal mains gas heating and hot water are included in the service charge, which is notably high at £5,000 per year. The property is leasehold but benefits from an exceptionally long lease (956 years), and it is offered with no onward chain for a quicker purchase. The apartment is an average-sized two-bedroom home (658 sq ft) with one bathroom.
Location is a genuine strength: easy walking access to Wimbledon town centre and Wimbledon Village, strong public transport into central London, and highly regarded local schools nearby. The building’s solid brick construction and period charm are appealing, but buyers should note likely thermal limitations (no added wall insulation assumed) and communal heating rather than individual controls.
Overall this is a practical, well-located flat for buyers seeking a characterful home with low immediate maintenance and good transport and schooling. The high service charge and communal heating model are important factors to weigh against the convenience and long lease length.
