Set within a well-kept mid-20th-century block on Wimbledon Park Side, this three-bedroom flat offers comfortable family living with practical conveniences. The apartment’s reception/dining room opens onto a balcony, and the layout includes a separate kitchen, two bathrooms and lift access — useful for everyday life and visiting family. The communal gardens and controlled off-street parking (24-hour CCTV) add outdoor space and security that will appeal to parents and car owners.
The flat sits in a convenient transport corridor with easy access to Wimbledon Village, Putney and Southfields, and good connections into central London via District Line and mainline services. Local schools include Outstanding and Good-rated primaries and several well-regarded secondaries, making this location attractive to families looking for quality schooling nearby.
Practical points: the long lease (982 years) is a major advantage for mortgage and resale prospects. Running costs are an important consideration — the advertised service charge is relatively high and council tax is above average. The building is solid-brick from the 1930s–40s with assumed lack of cavity insulation, so buyers prioritising low energy bills should budget for potential insulation or heating upgrades despite double glazing and gas central heating.
This is a solid family home with scope to modernise and personalise. It’s best suited to buyers seeking a well-located, spacious three-bedroom flat with outdoor space and parking, who are comfortable factoring in ongoing service charges and potential energy-efficiency improvements.
