A well-priced top-floor one-bedroom period conversion in the heart of Balham, offering practical space and strong commuter links. The flat sits within a substantial Victorian semi, with high ceilings in principal rooms and a bright front sitting room that captures street aspect light. Off-street parking and shared side access to a rear garden add useful outdoor and storage options rarely found with flats in this area.
This apartment is well suited to a first-time buyer or investor seeking a turn-key home with sensible running costs: gas central heating, double glazing, low annual ground rent and a below-average service charge. Balham’s shops, cafés and transport (Overground and Underground) are within easy walking distance, while Tooting Bec Common and the Lido provide nearby green space and leisure amenities.
Buyers should note a few material points: the building exterior and roof show evidence of needed maintenance, and the property’s construction is solid brick with no assumed wall insulation. The lease has 94 years remaining, and the service charge and ground rent are set at the stated amounts. These factors affect future costs and mortgage availability and should be investigated before proceeding.
Overall, this is a characterful period flat in a sought-after location, offering immediate occupation with scope for cosmetic updating. For someone prioritising transport, green space and off-street parking, it presents good value in Balham’s market, provided the communal and roof maintenance are clarified.
