Set on a quiet residential street in the heart of Clapham, this ground-floor Victorian flat makes a strong first-step purchase. High ceilings and a large bay window create a bright, airy reception room; the open-plan kitchen keeps the main living space sociable and practical for day-to-day life.
The bedroom opens onto a private garden and provides internal access to a cellar that could be used as a dressing room, utility space or storage. The building is well managed, the property is offered chain free and running costs are modest with an affordable council tax, low service charge and small ground rent.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold with 87 years remaining — suitable for many buyers but worth checking mortgage and future extension costs. The property sits in a solid-brick Victorian shell with no assumed wall insulation and uncertain double-glazing age, so updating thermal efficiency may be needed to improve comfort and running costs.
Location is a major asset: Clapham Common and local shops, cafes and transport links are all within easy reach. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and several highly rated schools nearby add practical appeal for first-time buyers who want central living with outdoor space.
