Habitable condition but cosmetic modernisation and survey recommended
This compact second-floor flat on Balham High Road offers strong rental potential and easy access to both Balham and Clapham South stations. The two double bedrooms and separate living room suit sharers or a rental let, with an estimated high rental yield attractive to investors.
The property is a period conversion (c.1915) totalling 506 sq ft with a long lease (about 150 years). It is habitable and double-glazed, heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators; an EPC indicates decent current efficiency with modest scope for improvement.
Note the property sits above street-level retail with primary outlooks onto a busy high road. Expect street noise and activity; the building entrance is directly off the pavement. Crime statistics for the area are very high—buyers and landlords should factor security and insurance considerations into plans.
The flat is suited to investors or first-time buyers prepared for an urban, small-footprint home. A buyer survey is recommended to confirm exact floor area, services and internal layout. Cosmetic updating could increase rental value and achieve the EPC potential.
