Set on the upper floors of a mid-century block, this two-bedroom flat offers a long lease and commuter-friendly location. At 438 sq ft it is compact but presented in good order, making it straightforward to let or to occupy for a first-time buyer. Mitcham Eastfields station is about 0.8 miles away, with frequent buses to Tooting and central connections.
The apartment’s practical layout—two bedrooms, fitted kitchen and three-piece bathroom—suits single professionals or couples seeking a low-maintenance property. The building benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating; council tax is described as cheap, helping running costs. Broadband speeds are average but mobile signal is excellent, useful for modern renters.
Notable considerations include the small overall size and the service cost profile: an annual service charge of around £1,500 and ground rent about £400. The area is classified as deprived with above-average crime levels, which may affect marketing and rental premiums. The building dates from the 1950s–60s with solid brick walls and no known insulation upgrades, so buyers should factor in potential future energy-efficiency works.
For investors, the long lease (circa 102 years remaining) and clear transport links are the primary value drivers. For owner-occupiers or first-time buyers, this is an affordable entry into the area but be realistic about space, running costs and local area challenges. The flat offers immediate rental or living potential with scope for modest improvements to increase appeal.
