This bright one-bedroom flat sits on the first floor of a double-fronted Victorian building on the Heaver Estate. High ceilings and two large front windows flood the open-plan kitchen/reception with natural light, creating a welcoming living space well suited to a single occupant or couple.
The principal bedroom is generously proportioned and includes fitted wardrobes. The kitchen is contemporary with integrated oven and gas hob; a modern bathroom completes the accommodation. The flat benefits from communal garden access to the rear and an allocated off-street storage/parking space.
Practical positives include a very long lease (980 years), mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Tenure is leasehold and the property measures 554 sq ft — compact but well laid out. Note the building’s solid brick walls (assumed, likely with limited cavity insulation), so external or internal insulation upgrades may be needed for long-term thermal improvement.
This property will appeal to first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance, well-presented London home with good local schools, green space nearby and straightforward commuter access. Investors may also value the clear layout and rental appeal, but consider the compact overall size when assessing yield.
