Set directly overlooking Clapham Common, this newly renovated one-bedroom apartment makes a compact, move-in-ready base for a first-time buyer or investor. The reception and bedroom face the Common through large sash-style windows, bringing natural light into the well-planned, modern layout.
The flat benefits from a very long lease (981 years), double glazing, lift access and off-street parking by residents’ permit. The fitted kitchen, contemporary bathroom and built-in storage maximise the apartment’s modest footprint, while mirrors and laminate flooring increase the sense of space.
Buyers should note the apartment is small at around 330 sq ft and uses electric storage heating, which can be more expensive than gas. The building dates from the early 1900s with solid brick walls (likely without modern wall insulation), so further energy upgrades are possible if desired. The local area is busy and has a higher-than-average crime profile and relative deprivation, though transport links and local amenities are excellent.
Overall this chain-free flat offers an attractive Clapham Common position, strong leasehold security and low immediate maintenance due to recent renovation — ideal for someone seeking a compact, central London home or a rental investment with straightforward upkeep.
