A bright, split-level three-bedroom top-floor flat offering 988 sqft of living space in a peaceful conservation street in South Lambeth. The conversion benefits from large skylights and a spacious reception room, creating airy, light-filled living areas across two floors. Contemporary kitchen fittings and modern fixtures are already in place, making the property comfortable while further improvements would add strong value.
This home is ideal for a family seeking proximity to good schools and excellent transport links — Nine Elms, Stockwell and Vauxhall are all within easy walking distance. Local pubs, shops and cafes are close by, while low traffic and a conservation zone give the street a quieter residential feel despite the central location.
Important practical points: the flat is sold chain-free but is leasehold with 85 years remaining and an annual ground rent of £440 — the short lease will need prompt attention and likely costs to extend. The property requires renovation/TLC in places (cosmetic and possible insulation upgrades); walls are solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation. The attic/top-floor rooms have low sloped ceilings which limit headroom.
Overall this is a strong-value project for buyers wanting a spacious three-bed in SW8 with immediate occupancy potential. Buyers should factor in lease-extension costs and renovation spend when assessing long-term value and mortgage eligibility.
