Summary - Flat B, 86 Balham High Road SW12 9AG
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright two-bedroom first-floor flat moments from Balham station and local amenities.
Two double bedrooms and generous reception space
A bright, well-presented two-double-bedroom first-floor flat in the heart of Balham, offering an open-plan living/kitchen and generous reception space. Natural light floods through large windows and a bay window, accentuating the modern finishes and wood flooring. At around 644 sq ft, the layout suits a first-time buyer seeking ready-to-move-in comfort or an investor targeting strong local rental demand.
Location is the property's biggest draw: Balham High Road places shops, cafes, bars and excellent transport links — Balham station (tube and Overground) — within an easy walk. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working, while nearby good and outstanding schools make the area attractive to young families and sharers.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold and in a building constructed c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls (no known cavity insulation), and the double glazing installation date is unknown. EPC rating C is reasonable for an older build, but upgrading insulation or heating controls could improve efficiency and long-term running costs. Crime levels in the immediate area are reported as very high; buyers should consider security measures and local context.
Overall, this apartment offers a convenient, light-filled central Balham base with modern interiors and practical size for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property is largely turn-key but has sensible improvement opportunities (insulation and energy upgrades, and potential minor refresh) to increase comfort and value.
