Summary - Oldridge Road, SW12 SW12 8PL
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious two-bedroom flat with private roof terrace near Balham station.
Split-level period conversion with unique vaulted ceiling architecture
A bright, architect-designed split-level conversion in Balham’s sought-after Nightingale Triangle, offering generous living space and a private roof terrace. The open-plan reception has dramatic vaulted ceilings and skylights, creating a light, airy feel ideal for social living and family gatherings. Two large double bedrooms and an overall footprint of 848 sq ft provide comfortable room sizes for growing families.
The location is a standout: short walks to Balham station (Overground and Underground), Clapham and Wandsworth Common, plus a wide range of shops, cafés and good local schools. Chain free and ready for immediate occupation, the flat suits buyers wanting quick completion and strong local amenities on the doorstep.
Practical points to note: the property is a leasehold period conversion (constructed 1900–1929), with solid-brick walls assumed to have no cavity insulation. There is one bathroom and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators. Local crime levels are above average — a material factor to consider — and some buyers may want to upgrade insulation or carry cosmetic updating to suit tastes.
Overall, this is a characterful, roomy two-bedroom split-level flat that balances period features and contemporary open-plan living. It will particularly appeal to families and buyers prioritising space, light and proximity to transport and green spaces, while those sensitive to running costs, insulation or neighbourhood safety should factor in potential remedial work or security measures.
