2 bed 1 bath Flat
Characterful two-double duplex near Streatham Hill ideal for first buyers or investors.
Two double bedrooms across a split-level duplex layout
Spacious reception with high ceilings and large sash windows
Share of freehold; sold chain-free
Approx 955 sq ft — larger-than-average for London two-bed
Lease ~75 years — lenders may refuse; extension costs likely
No private garden; on-street permitted parking only
Solid brick walls — probable lack of insulation, modernisation needed
Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal; good local transport
Set across the first and second floors of an Edwardian mid-terrace, this split-level two double-bedroom flat makes the most of period proportions. The main reception is bright and roomy, with high ceilings, large sash-style windows and original cornices that give a strong sense of space and character. Chain-free sale and a share of freehold add straightforward ownership appeal.
Practical transport links are a clear strength: Streatham Hill station and multiple bus routes provide fast journeys into central London and Clapham Junction. The local area offers good amenities, parks and several highly rated schools, suiting buyers who need accessible commuting and family options. On-street permitted parking and fast broadband further support everyday living.
There are important lease considerations: the remaining term is about 75 years, which may restrict mortgage availability and will require attention and cost when extending. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation and the flat would benefit from light modernisation to maximise long-term value.
Overall, this is a characterful, well-located duplex that will suit first-time buyers or investors who accept some short-to-medium term work on the lease and modest updating to unlock full potential.
