Summary - Balham New Road, Balham, SW12 SW12 9PG
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Large rooms, private patio and excellent transport links for first-time buyers.
691 sq ft one-bedroom flat with open-plan kitchen/living room
A bright, spacious one-bedroom flat offering 691 sq ft of well-planned living space moments from Balham Station. The large open-plan kitchen/living room and generous double bedroom create a comfortable home for a first-time buyer or an easy-to-let investment. You have a private front door, a patio and access to a large communal garden — rare for flats in this area.
Practical details are straightforward: double glazing, gas central heating, built-in storage and a usable hallway nook suitable for a home workspace. The property sits in a lively, well-served part of SW12 with Clapham and Tooting Commons and Balham’s shops, cafes and transport links all within a short walk.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with approximately 115 years remaining, an annual service charge averaging £1,675 and a ground rent of £100. The building is a 1900–1929 mid-terrace with solid-brick walls (likely uninsulated) — insulation upgrades could be needed if you prioritise energy efficiency.
There is a very high local crime level reported for the area; prospective buyers should factor this into personal security and insurance considerations. Otherwise, the combination of size, outdoor space and transport connections represents clear appeal for first-time purchasers and investors seeking rental demand in Balham.
