This chain-free, two-bedroom leasehold apartment offers a practical first home close to Streatham's shops and transport links. Set on Stanthorpe Road, the 650 sq ft layout features an open-plan kitchen/living area, one bathroom and a small balcony — a compact, commuter-friendly apartment with long-term security on the lease.
The property was constructed c.1996–2002 and benefits from mains gas central heating, a modern boiler and UPVC double glazing. The 277-year lease and EPC rating C are strong tenure and energy indicators for buyers seeking a straightforward move-in option without immediate lease concerns.
Local amenities and schooling are strong: walking distance to Streatham Station with services into central London and East Croydon, plus several highly rated primary and secondary schools nearby. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support remote working and everyday connectivity.
Important considerations: the area records higher-than-average crime and is classified as deprived — factors buyers should weigh for long-term comfort and security. The apartment is average-sized with small bedroom proportions and will suit first-time buyers or investors looking for rental potential rather than those seeking expansive living space. No flooding risk is recorded.
