This bright two-bedroom, two-bathroom first-floor apartment offers 700 sq ft of well-laid-out living space on a quiet residential street near Streatham Station. The open-plan kitchen and reception room with wooden flooring creates a comfortable everyday living area, while the master bedroom benefits from an en-suite and built-in storage. The property suits first-time buyers or city professionals seeking ready-to-move-in accommodation with strong transport links.
Location is a clear strength: a short walk to Streatham Station and the High Road for shops, cafés and regular bus routes into central London. Streatham Common and The Rookery are nearby for weekend greenery, and local broadband and mobile signals are both strong. The building’s Victorian exterior and period features give character, while internal double glazing installed since 2002 helps with comfort and noise.
Buyers should note the material considerations: the flat is leasehold with 104 years remaining, and the building’s solid brick walls are assumed to have no insulation, which may affect heating costs and could benefit from future improvement. The property is in an area with higher crime rates and measured area deprivation; prospective purchasers may want to check local safety initiatives and crime data.
Overall this is a practical, well-presented apartment with good transport and amenity access, suited to first-time buyers or investors wanting a straightforward rental or owner-occupier purchase. The shared front patio offers outdoor space but is communal rather than private. Factor in leasehold tenure and potential energy-efficiency upgrades when assessing long-term running costs.
