Summary - Pendle Road, Furzedown, SW16 SW16 6RS
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Long lease, bright living space close to shops and Tooting Bec Common.
534 sq ft one-bedroom flat with two balconies and good natural light
This bright one-bedroom flat sits on the first floor of a small mid-century development on a peaceful tree-lined road, just moments from Moyser Road’s cafés and Tooting Bec Common. The living/dining room and bedroom both enjoy balcony access, delivering natural light and a pleasant outlook. At 534 sq ft the layout feels well-proportioned for a single buyer or couple wanting comfortable city living.
Practical benefits include a very long lease (178 years), a below-average service charge (£750), mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Local amenities and good schools are nearby, and the area profile points to a lively, cosmopolitan community popular with young professionals.
Notable issues are straightforward and factual: the block is mid-20th-century brick and currently has scaffolding and visible need for external refurbishment, presenting future communal works and costs. The building’s original solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, which may affect heating bills and could invite retrofit opportunities. Crime levels in the immediate area are above average; buyers should consider security measures and local data.
Overall this property suits a first-time buyer seeking a well-located, move-in-ready flat with long lease security and scope to add value through communal improvements or internal upgrades. It balances immediate comfort with realistic maintenance responsibilities at the block level.
