Summary - Flat 1, 42 Ambleside Avenue SW16 1QP
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Period character with private garden, close to Streatham stations and top schools.
Large reception room with high ceilings and period features
This spacious two-bedroom ground-floor flat combines period character and a contemporary open-plan layout. The reception room is notably large with high ceilings and retains Victorian features, while the modern kitchen/dining area opens via bi-folds onto a private garden — a rare outside space for a flat in this area.
The home offers two double bedrooms and one bathroom across approximately 831 sq ft, making it well suited to a young family or professionals seeking extra lateral space. It’s within easy reach of Streatham and Streatham Hill stations, local shops and green spaces such as Streatham Common, and benefits from excellent mobile signal and a neighbourhood with strong schools rated Outstanding.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with an annual service charge around £1,200 and a ground rent of £55. The building dates from 1900–1929 with solid brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation, so buyers should allow for potential heating and insulation upgrades. Broadband speeds are average and there is a single bathroom for two bedrooms.
Overall this is a characterful, well-located flat offering generous internal space and a private garden. It will suit buyers seeking a family-friendly layout close to transport and schools, though some period maintenance and energy-efficiency improvements may be needed.
