Top-floor one-bedroom flat in Streatham Hill, arranged over approximately 438 sq ft, suited to a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking good transport links and fast broadband. The apartment offers a double bedroom with an en-suite, a bright, spacious reception room with parquet flooring and large window, and a modern kitchen. Occupying the top floor of a well-maintained mansion block with communal gardens, the property benefits from pleasant communal grounds and a curb-appeal façade.
Practical details to note: the flat is leasehold and served by a community heating scheme (mains gas). EPC is rated D and the building fabric shows partial insulation (timber-frame noted), so future buyers should budget for energy improvements if efficiency is a priority. The overall internal area is compact at 438 sq ft, which limits storage and layout flexibility compared with larger homes.
Location is a clear strength: a short walk to Streatham Hill station, easy bus links into Brixton, and a wide choice of local amenities, cafés and theatres. Nearby primary and secondary schools include several rated Good or Outstanding, which supports family use on a smaller scale. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are strong, making the flat practical for home-working.
Overall this is a well-presented, characterful one-bedroom with communal gardens and good connectivity. It suits a purchaser seeking a convenient, low-maintenance urban home or a landlord looking for a centrally located rental — but bear in mind the small footprint, leasehold tenure and energy-efficiency considerations when assessing value.
