Situated on the third floor of a gated Grade II listed Georgian building, this bright two-bedroom flat offers 651 sq ft of well-proportioned living space close to Clapham Common and Clapham High Street. The apartment is chain free and benefits from an on-site communal garden, high ceilings and period character retained in the exterior. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and strong transport links make it handy for commuting or working from home.
Buyers should be aware this is a listed property, which can restrict alterations and may complicate refurbishments or future permissions. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so upgrading thermal performance or heating efficiency could be required. The flat is leasehold; prospective purchasers should check the lease length, service charges and any listed-building maintenance obligations.
The location suits first-time buyers seeking an inner-city feel with green space on the doorstep and multiple good local schools nearby. While the area offers many amenities and convenient transport, local crime statistics are high and wider area deprivation indicators are elevated — important considerations for buyers prioritising quiet or low-crime neighbourhoods.
Overall this home provides characterful, centrally placed accommodation with clear potential for improvement, especially for those prepared to manage listed-building constraints and leasehold responsibilities.
