Corner-plot five-bed near Streatham Common ideal for active households.
Five double bedrooms and high ceilings with strong period character
Large corner plot with decent rear garden and outdoor space
Single bathroom only — needs additional facilities for larger household
EPC rating E; likely requires energy-efficiency improvements and insulation
Solid brick walls assumed with no insulation — retrofit likely needed
Excellent transport links to London Bridge, Blackfriars and Victoria
Close to Streatham Common, The Rookery and good local schools
Council tax above average; local crime levels reported above average
This substantial five-bedroom Victorian end-of-terrace sits on a corner plot by Streatham Common and The Rookery, offering generous room sizes and high ceilings typical of the period. Original features and bay windows give the house strong character while the decent rear garden offers outdoor space for children or entertaining. The property’s size and layout suit a growing household seeking proximity to green space and fast rail links into central London.
The house is offered freehold and presents clear refurbishment potential. There is only one bathroom for five bedrooms, and the property has solid brick walls with no assumed insulation, so buyers should plan for thermal upgrades and modernisation. The EPC rating is E and the main heating is gas boiler and radiators, which may require improvement to meet current efficiency expectations.
Location is a genuine asset: close to Streatham Common, local cafés, supermarkets and three nearby stations with swift services to London Bridge, Blackfriars and Victoria. Strong local schools include several Outstanding-rated primaries and secondaries within easy reach. Practical considerations include above-average crime in the area and a council tax band above average — factors to weigh alongside the property’s size and position.
For families or buyers wanting a large period property to personalise, this house offers space, character and a desirable plot. It will suit purchasers prepared to invest in energy efficiency, additional bathrooms and cosmetic renovation to fully unlock its potential.
