A distinctive one-bedroom apartment set on the first floor of an attractive Victorian mansion block on Elmfield Road. The flat is cleanly decorated and offers a bright, good-sized reception room with high ceilings, period fireplace and pleasant views over the communal garden. The open reception/kitchen layout and modern bathroom give easy move-in condition for a single buyer or couple.
This is a compact home (418 sq ft) in a sought-after Balham location, set back from the High Road with fast transport links nearby: Balham Overground and Clapham South Underground within easy reach. Local shops, restaurants and leisure amenities are all within a short walk, making day-to-day life convenient.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold and relatively small, so it suits buyers seeking a central, characterful pied-à-terre or an investment purchase. The building is period construction with solid brick walls (likely no cavity insulation), and the local area records higher crime levels than average — sensible buyers should check lease details, service charges and insurance arrangements before committing.
For buyers wanting period features, character and a ready-to-live-in flat in a lively neighbourhood, this apartment is a straightforward, low-maintenance option. For those needing larger accommodation, significant refurbishment or long-term energy-efficiency improvements may be required.
