A bright two-bedroom apartment set within a sympathetically converted 1930s building, this home pairs period character with contemporary finishes. The open-plan kitchen and south-facing bay-front reception room create a light, sociable living space ideal for first-time buyers or couples. The principal bedroom is quietly positioned to the rear while a second double benefits from the same sunny front aspect.
Practical features include a shared driveway providing off-street parking, central heating via a mains-gas boiler and a compact but well-equipped kitchen with breakfast bar. The flat’s 637 sq ft layout is efficient and comfortable for everyday living, with easy access to Tooting Commons and local amenities on Streatham High Road.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold apartment and the building’s solid-brick walls are assumed to lack modern cavity insulation; additional insulation or energy upgrades may be needed to improve efficiency. Broadband speeds are average and the local area reports higher crime levels, both factors to weigh when considering convenience versus ongoing running costs and security needs.
Transport links are strong: Streatham Station is under a ten-minute walk with Southern and Thameslink services, plus frequent buses to Balham and Brixton. Local schooling options include several highly rated primary and secondary schools, making this a convenient lock-up-and-leave base close to green space and urban facilities.
