Summary - 56 ST JAMES TERRACE BALHAM LONDON SW12 8HJ
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright period conversion near Balham station and Wandsworth Common.
Top-floor one-bedroom period conversion, 586 sq ft
This bright top-floor one-bedroom period conversion sits at the end of a Victorian terrace, a short walk from Balham station and Wandsworth Common. High ceilings and large windows create a spacious feel across the flat’s 586 sq ft, with a generously proportioned double bedroom and a well-lit reception space.
The property is offered chain free and will suit a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a central Balham location in a very affluent, inner-city neighbourhood. Reliable local transport links include Northern Line and Overground services, while fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern working-from-home needs.
The flat is leasehold and formed within an early 20th-century building (c.1900–1929). Walls are timber-frame with no insulation assumed, which may mean higher heating costs; the property’s main heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators. As a top-floor conversion, access is by stairs and there is limited information on council tax and service charges.
Well-regarded primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, including several rated Good and Outstanding. The apartment offers period character and clear potential for energy and cosmetic improvements, making it a practical, centrally located home or an attractive rental proposition.
