Set just off Tooting Bec Common, this period two-bedroom conversion combines character details with contemporary fittings and a rare allocated off-street parking space. The raised reception/dining area and large windows deliver excellent natural light, while a separate modern fitted kitchen and a stylish bathroom complete comfortable everyday living. The flat sits on the second floor of a property built c.1900–1929 and offers a practical, efficient layout across about 694 sq ft.
This home suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking strong local amenities and transport links. The Northern Line (Tooting Bec, Balham) and Streatham stations are within easy reach, and independent cafes, shops and the Lido are moments away. There is long lease security (share of freehold with c.961 years remaining) and no flood risk.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: glazing was installed before 2002, the building’s original timber-frame walls likely lack modern insulation, and the EPC is E — improvements could reduce running costs and add value. The property is an average overall size for a two-bedroom flat and council tax is moderate. These factors present straightforward upgrade opportunities rather than fatal flaws.
