Description

This two-bedroom ground-floor flat is being sold as a probate property and is described as requiring modernisation. The reception and dining area has a fireplace and fitted shelving, with access to the kitchen. A rear conservatory provides additional space that has previously been used as a study or home office. Both bedrooms have fitted wardrobes, and the property has shower-room and separate WC facilities. Traditional features remain, while the interiors offer scope for updating to a buyer’s requirements. There is a small front garden behind a low brick wall and an enclosed garden area to the rear. The flat is in Furzedown, with Streatham Common station and local shops, cafés and green spaces within reach. The listing identifies this as a refurbishment opportunity for buyers prepared to undertake improvement works.

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £300,000, this two-bedroom ground-floor flat is priced at £372 per sq ft, around 34.6% below the local average — a strong entry point for a buyer looking to acquire a project and make it their own. The dated finishes create scope to modernise the kitchen and shower room, refresh decoration and flooring, and improve the enclosed garden areas. The conservatory adds useful glazed space, while the reception fireplace and fitted shelving give the home some character to work with.

The works are estimated at £35,000–£65,000, so this is a meaningful refurbishment rather than a light cosmetic update. The visible exterior and roof show no obvious major defect, though the bedroom wall marking should be investigated. Streatham Common station and nearby local amenities add to the appeal of the location.

Key opportunities

  • Modernise the dated kitchen and shower room, then refresh decoration and flooring to create a more contemporary interior.
  • Make use of the conservatory as additional flexible space and improve the enclosed garden areas.
  • Acquire at a notably below-local-average price per square foot, with a traditional fireplace and fitted shelving providing character to retain or rework.

Key risks

  • Investigate the visible bedroom wall marking or discolouration to establish its cause and whether any remedial work is needed.
