A bright, well-arranged two-double-bedroom flat in Heritage Park, offered chain free and ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The reception room and separate kitchen give a conventional, easy-to-furnish layout across 535 sq ft. You get two allocated off-street parking spaces — a notable bonus in this area — plus communal outdoor space set back from Henry Doulton Drive.
Practical strengths include a long lease (162 years), double glazing, and quick access to Tooting Bec Common, local shops and cafés, and Tooting Bec Underground for direct transport links. Nearby primary and secondary schools (including outstanding-rated options) add appeal for buyers with children or renters seeking good schooling catchments.
Be clear about recurring costs and some limitations: the service charge is approximately £2,000 per year with a small ground rent of £160, and main heating is electric storage heaters which can be costlier than gas. The apartment is modest in size (535 sq ft) with average room proportions, and the local crime rate is above average — factors to weigh for both owner-occupiers and landlords.
Overall, this practical, well-presented flat offers low-entry ownership in an inner-city, well-connected pocket of SW17. It suits buyers wanting a straightforward home to personalise or investors seeking a lettable property with good transport and schooling nearby.
