Summary - 3, Cricklade Avenue SW2 3HD
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright Edwardian duplex ideal for first-time buyers or investors seeking potential.
Two double bedrooms with period proportions and high ceilings
Set across the first and second floors of an attractive Edwardian terrace, this split-level two double-bedroom flat combines generous proportions with classic period detail. The living room benefits from high ceilings, large sash-style windows and abundant natural light, creating a bright, welcoming space for everyday living and entertaining. The layout includes a separate kitchen, family bathroom and good eaves storage to the upper bedroom.
Practical strengths include a share of freehold, chain-free sale and a substantial overall floor area (circa 955 sq ft) for a two-bedroom London flat. Transport connections are strong: Streatham Hill and bus routes provide easy access to central London, while local shops, cafes and well-regarded schools are within walking distance.
Buyers should note a material drawback: the lease has about 75 years remaining. That level can restrict mortgage options and may deter some lenders; prospective purchasers should check mortgageability and factor in potential lease-extension costs. The property appears in fair, neutral condition and would benefit from light modernisation to maximise value.
On balance this flat will suit first-time buyers seeking roomy period accommodation with good natural light and development potential, or investors comfortable managing a lease-extension process. There is no garden and parking is on-street only, so consider outdoor and parking needs before viewing.
