3 bed flat to rent

Balham High Road SW17

Jeremy Jacob presents a newly refurbished large and lateral
modern and contemporary three double bedroom, two bathroom (111 square metres)
apartment on the first floor in Du Cane Court, Balham. This hugely desirable 24
hour concierge mansion block building on Balham High Road benefits from three
equal sized double bedrooms and has been newly refurbished throughout. The
Master bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and an ensuite bathroom
(containing a freestanding shower). The second and third double bedroom can
benefit from the use of the external bathroom (which contains a bathtub/ stand
up shower combination). The eat-in kitchen is integrated throughout and
provides "Neff" electric cooker, oven and extractor fan, and
fridge/freezer, dishwasher. The property also provides a utility cupboard for
the separate "Bosch" washer and separate dryer. This property is
wonderfully bright throughout, provides lift access, contains gas heating (in
which the heating and hot water are included in the rent). Du Cane Court is an
Art Deco apartment block on Balham High Road, Balham, south London. A
distinctive local landmark, it was opened in 1937 and, with 676 apartments, is
the largest privately owned block of flats under one roof in Europe. It is so
distinctive (at least from a great height in the air) that it was reputedly
used as a navigational landmark by German pilots bombing London during the
Second World War. It was a popular place to live for many music hall stars in
the 1930s and 1940s and boasted a social club, on the top floor, before the
area was converted into flats. Past residents have included the comedian Tommy
Trinder. Currently comedian and writer Arthur Smith, the self-styled 'Bard of
Balham', is a resident. Du Cane Court is an extremly convenient place to
reside, being in close walking proximity to Balham Underground Station
(Northern line direct to the City or West End) and Balham rail station (London
Victoria from 11 mins) and Balham High Road. The local area provides extensive
shopping, dining, drinking, leisure and recreational facilities (including
Waitrose and a boutique local cinema).
