Bright two-bedroom Victorian conversion near Brixton and Clapham North stations..
Two double bedrooms with bay-windowed reception and good natural light
Large communal rear garden shared by residents
Compact 581 sqft footprint; limited internal storage
Leasehold: 89 years remaining — affects mortgage options
Service charge approx £1,736 per year; ground rent £10
Very high local crime levels and area deprivation noted
Energy Rating C; mains gas heating with boiler and radiators
Solid brick walls (likely no insulation) — consider retrofit costs
Stylishly presented two-bedroom first-floor flat in a Victorian conversion, set between Brixton and Clapham North. The apartment has a bright bay-windowed reception, modern open-plan kitchen and two double bedrooms across a compact 581 sq ft layout — a practical, move-in-ready home for buyers seeking period character with contemporary finishes.
Practical positives include a large communal garden to the rear, an Energy Rating C, and excellent transport links with Brixton and Clapham North stations within walking distance. Serviceable mains gas heating, solid brick construction and neutral décor make the flat low-maintenance in the short term and straightforward to personalise.
Notable considerations: the property is leasehold with 89 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £1,736 and a nominal ground rent of £10. The overall footprint is small for a two-bedroom (limited internal storage and narrow bedroom widths), and the building’s solid brick construction implies little wall insulation. The local area shows very high crime statistics and higher deprivation, which may affect resale and rental demand for some buyers.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer or investor who values period details, strong transport links and a ready-to-live-in home but is comfortable managing leasehold costs and local area factors. Private viewing and pre-purchase checks are recommended to confirm exact boundaries, building compliance and any communal maintenance liabilities.
