Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This home is in a peaceful part of South London, giving you a break from the city buzz – while still keeping everything close. Tooting Commons and Tooting Bec Lido are just down the road for walks and open-air swims, and you’ve got plenty of shops and transport links nearby. Inside, it's a proper little home-from-home, with a small private balcony off the living space. It’s not the fanciest of outdoor spots, but it’s great for a morning coffee or catching some sun. And when evening rolls around, the bedroom projector means you've got your own cinema for cosy movie nights.

About Streatham
Sitting just six miles south of Central London – stretching from Brixton to Norbury – Streatham has known many guises over the years.
