Summary - Grove Avenue SM1 2DA
3 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free period flat with garden access and long lease, ideal for first-time buyers.
Ground-floor three-bedroom apartment, approx 831 sq ft
A spacious ground-floor, three-bedroom apartment set within a prestigious gated road on Grove Avenue. At about 831 sq ft the layout feels generous for a flat of this period, with a large living/dining room and direct access onto the communal patio and gardens — ideal for relaxed indoor-outdoor living. The property is offered chain-free and has a long lease (177 years), making it straightforward for first-time buyers or those looking to downsize.
The apartment is in good internal order with period character: bay-windowed elevations, mouldings and a mid-century style living room. The kitchen is well-proportioned and the three bedrooms offer flexibility for a home office or guests. Transport links, high-street amenities and a strong selection of schools are all close by, giving this location practical daily convenience and good access to central London.
Notable practical points are stated plainly: the property is leasehold with an average annual service charge of around £2,704 and on-street residents’ parking rather than allocated off-street bays. The building dates from the 1930s and is of solid brick construction; insulation details are unknown (assumed no cavity insulation) which could affect thermal performance and running costs. Crime levels in the immediate area are reported above average — buyers should consider security measures and local checks.
Overall this flat suits a first-time buyer seeking space and character close to amenities, or a downsizer wanting a low-stairs home with garden access. It offers immediate liveability with simple upgrade potential (insulation, modernising finishes) for those wanting to add value over time.
