Set on a quiet, tree-lined stretch of Northbourne Road, this lateral one-bedroom apartment offers an efficient, well-laid-out home within easy reach of Clapham Common and local amenities. The dual-aspect reception room feels bright and spacious, and a separate kitchen provides practical cooking space. A private garden adds rare outdoor access for a ground-floor flat.
This property is offered chain-free with a share of freehold and 104 years remaining on the lease, giving clear long-term ownership prospects. Public transport is close by: Clapham High Street Overground and Clapham Common Underground provide straightforward links to the West End and the City, making it convenient for commuting or weekend plans.
Specification is straightforward: electric storage heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and solid brick walls assumed without cavity insulation. Service charges are approximately £2,406 per year and council tax sits at a moderate level (Band D). These running costs and the electric heating should be considered when comparing monthly outgoings.
Presented in excellent decorative condition, the apartment will suit a first-time buyer seeking a manageable, low-maintenance London home or an investor looking for a let-ready property in a highly qualified, inner-city area. Note: the building dates from the 1967–1975 period and the walls are assumed uninsulated, so further energy-efficiency works may be desirable over time.
