Light-filled one-bedroom flat in central Tooting, offered chain-free and ready for immediate occupation. At circa 530 sqft the apartment feels airy thanks to large double-glazed windows and a well-proportioned living space; a bonus storage/office room adds useful flexibility for working from home or extra belongings. The building dates from the 1930s and retains solid-brick construction, giving character alongside straightforward maintenance requirements.
Outdoor appeal is strong for an urban flat: a huge communal roof terrace provides open-air space and views across London — an uncommon asset for this price point. The flat is a short walk to Tooting Broadway (Northern line) and a wide range of shops, cafés and markets, which is ideal for first-time buyers or a pied-à-terre.
Buyers should note material facts: the property is leasehold, double glazing appears to pre-date 2002, and the building likely has solid brick walls with no added cavity insulation. The area scores high for crime and is flagged as relatively deprived; broadband and mobile signals are average. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators. These points may influence insurance, running costs and refurbishment decisions.
This apartment suits first-time buyers or investors seeking central Tooting convenience with communal outdoor space and flexible internal layout. It offers immediate usability with straightforward opportunities to improve energy performance and personalise finishes over time.
