This fifth-floor three-bedroom flat in Little Dimocks, Balham, offers far-reaching city views and a private balcony in a purpose-built 1960s block. The 834 sq ft layout provides generous built-in storage and medium-sized rooms, making it suitable for families or investors seeking central London location and refurbishment potential.
The property is chain-free and will be sold via the Modern Method of Auction. Buyers must complete within 56 days and pay a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% (minimum £6,600) plus a £349 Buyer Information Pack fee. Leasehold tenure applies and buyers should confirm lease length and ground rent/service charge liabilities before bidding.
The flat requires full modernisation: the kitchen and bathroom are dated, walls likely lack insulation, and heating is by electric storage heaters. Double glazing has been fitted post-2002, but buyers should budget for electrical upgrades, insulation improvements and general refurbishment to achieve modern standards and reduce running costs.
Location is a major strength: excellent transport links from Balham Underground and National Rail, nearby green space at Tooting Common, and strong local amenities. This is a practical opportunity for a cash buyer or a buyer prepared for auction purchase conditions to add value through renovation.
