Set within a period conversion on a tree-lined street, this well-presented one-bedroom flat combines character features with modern fixtures. The apartment offers a large double bedroom, a bright reception space with high ceilings and a skylight, plus a separate modern kitchen and contemporary shower room finished in neutral tones. At around 600 sq ft, the layout feels generous for a one-bed and suits first-time buyers or investors seeking ease of move-in.
Practical strengths include double glazing, an EPC rating of C and share of freehold tenure, which supports ownership stability. The location is a key draw: a short walk to Streatham Rail Station, Streatham High Road amenities and open green space at Streatham Common. Local primary and secondary schools include several rated Outstanding and Good, adding appeal for buyers thinking ahead.
Important considerations are candidly stated. The wider area scores as deprived with higher local crime levels — factors to weigh for personal security and lettability. Construction dates indicate the building was completed between 1900–1929 and the walls are timber-frame with no confirmed insulation, so further thermal upgrades may be desirable. Photographs were taken in 2021 and the property is in a multi-storey layout, so viewing will confirm current condition and communal areas.
Overall, this flat offers comfortable, ready-to-enjoy accommodation with period charm and modern finishes in a well-connected south London location. It will suit buyers prioritising transport links and local amenities, and investors targeting steady rental demand, provided they factor in area conditions and potential improvement costs.
