Bright two-bedroom top-floor loft with strong rental and development potential.
Top-floor Victorian loft-style apartment, abundant natural light
Set on the top floor of a striking Victorian building on Streatham High Road, this newly refurbished two-bedroom loft-style apartment blends period character with contemporary finishes. The bright open-plan living and kitchen is defined by exposed beams, a brick feature wall, wooden floors and three overhead skylights that flood the space with natural light.
Two double bedrooms, a modern bathroom and substantial loft storage offer practical day-to-day living plus clear potential for further development (STPP). At approximately 707 sq ft, the layout feels generous for a central top-floor apartment and will appeal to first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors seeking ready-made rental income in a well-connected part of SW16.
Practical details: the flat is leasehold with 986 years remaining and a small ground rent of £150. The property benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile coverage. It is being sold via a Secure Sale online auction process with a Starting Bid of £260,000 (terms apply) and can be legally prepared for immediate exchange once a bid is accepted.
Be transparent on costs: the auction process requires a 5% non-refundable deposit on exchange and a non-refundable reservation fee (up to 6% inc VAT, minimum £6,000 inc VAT) payable on agreement of sale. The wider area is an inner-city, multi-ethnic professional community with many local amenities and good schools nearby, but the property sits in an area with relatively high crime rates and local deprivation indicators which buyers should factor into decision-making.
