Leasehold tenure — check lease length and service charges before purchase

Area deprivation and above-average crime rates — factor into decision
A bright first-floor studio in a purpose-built block positioned between Streatham Hill, Brixton and Clapham South. The main living space benefits from two bay windows and generous natural light, with wooden flooring and a separate fully fitted kitchen for practical day-to-day living. The apartment is compact (c.433 sq ft) but well laid out and presented in modern neutral decor, making it ready to move into or let.
Location is a key selling point: shops, cafes and restaurants on Brixton Hill are on the doorstep, with Brockwell Park only a short walk away and excellent transport links to central London via buses and nearby Victoria Line and Southern Rail connections. Council tax is very cheap, and mobile and broadband services are strong, supporting city living and working from home.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold — buyers should check lease length and service charges — and the building dates from the 1930s, with solid brick walls that likely lack cavity insulation. Double glazing is fitted but the installation date is unknown. Crime rates in the area are above average and the wider locality is classified as deprived; these factors should be weighed alongside the location and price.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer seeking affordable London entry or an investor after a well-located rental unit. It offers immediate usability with scope for cosmetic updates and longer-term improvement (insulation, energy upgrades) if desired.
