chain-free opportunity! Charming Split-Level 2-Bedroom Flat in buzzing Furzedown
Discover a homely, 2-bedroom flat well positioned between two of South London's most beautiful green spaces - Tooting Common and Streatham Common. This chain-free gem is an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers or savvy investors to secure a foothold in one of London's most rapidly developing areas.
Perfect location & transport
Less than 10 minutes' walk to Streatham Common station with direct services to Victoria, London Bridge, and Clapham Junction in just 20-30 minutes. Excellent bus connections reach vibrant Tooting Bec, Tooting Broadway, and trendy Balham in 15-20 minutes, putting you at the heart of South London's buzzing restaurant and nightlife scene.
Unique split-level living
A thoughtfully designed flat maximises space with two levels and a strikingly high ceiling on the landing. The first level holds a practical kitchen and recently refreshed bathroom, while the upper level offers three versatile rooms - perfect as two bedrooms plus home office, or two bedrooms with spacious reception room.
Recently refreshed & modern comforts
Freshly painted rooms with a well presented bathroom recently updated with new sink, vanity unit, and tiling. Enjoy the luxury of electric underfloor heating in both main rooms and bathroom - complete with lifetime warranty from supplier. The kitchen comes with brand-new unused oven and washing machine (less than one year old, barely used).
Outstanding value & security
* 462 sq ft of efficient, well-planned living space
* 125-year lease starting 2013 (114 years remaining)
* Council Tax Band C under Wandsworth Council (famously London's lowest)
* Ground rent: £250 annually
* Service charges: Based on actual building expenses
* Small building: Just 2 flats, maintained with no major works planned
Lifestyle & investment potential
Furzedown is experiencing exciting regeneration with several new developments enhancing the area's appeal. You'll be perfectly positioned between two magnificent commons offering lakes, lidos, sports facilities, and endless green space. The vibrant local scene includes excellent restaurants, bars, and the famous Tooting Market just minutes away.
Practical considerations
This is an entirely electric property (no gas) with efficient heating systems. While there's no allocated parking, off-road parking is available nearby. The flat occupies the top half of a converted house, offering a private refuge despite being on a well-connected road that can be busy during weekday rush hours - testament to its excellent transport links.
Honest disclosure
The kitchen, while functional and equipped with new appliances, has some minor floor discolouration - reflected in our competitive pricing. This presents an excellent opportunity to add value with future kitchen updates when desired.
Ready to move
This chain-free sale means no waiting for property chains to complete. The motivated seller is looking to purchase their next home, creating an excellent opportunity for buyers ready to move quickly.
We offer flexible viewing arrangements including evenings and weekends.
