Set within a late-Edwardian period conversion on Lavender Sweep, this two-bedroom apartment combines generous space with original character. High ceilings and large sash windows create a bright, airy feel across an expansive 968 sq ft layout, with a modern kitchen and well-proportioned reception. Its proximity to Clapham and Wandsworth Common and the shops of Northcote Road makes daily life convenient.
The property is offered leasehold with 150 years remaining, making it straightforward for most buyers. Heating is provided by a mains gas boiler and radiators; walls are original solid brick with assumed lack of insulation, so buyers should consider energy-efficiency upgrades. Broadband and mobile signals are excellent, supporting home working and streaming.
Location is a major draw: easy walk to Clapham Junction for transport links, plentiful local amenities, and several highly rated schools nearby. Practical points to note — council tax is moderate, there is no flood risk, and the area is classified as affluent, though local crime levels are recorded as very high. Additional fees for leasehold documentation or surveys may apply.
This apartment will suit first-time buyers or investors who value space, period detail and a central Battersea location but are prepared to manage or budget for improvement works such as insulation or other surveys specified in purchase due diligence.
