High local crime and very deprived area - informed viewings advised
This well-arranged 1-bedroom flat on the 2nd floor offers a practical 450 sq ft layout with a large reception room, separate kitchen and a full-width balcony. The apartment has good natural light and a double bedroom of a comfortable size, making it a straightforward starter home or rental unit.
The property requires renovation: the kitchen is dated with mid-20th-century cabinetry and limited storage, and the building is system-built with assumed lack of wall insulation. These are realistic upgrade items that will unlock value for buyers willing to modernise.
Practical strengths include a long lease (103 years remaining), low ground rent (£10), mains gas heating via boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The location is close to Brixton High Street’s shops, bars, restaurants and transport links, which supports both owner-occupation and lettability.
Buyers should note material negatives: the neighbourhood records high crime and very high area deprivation, and some building fabric and energy-efficiency shortcomings are likely. This is priced accordingly and is best suited to purchasers prepared to renovate or investors targeting refurbishment potential.
