The list price of £285,000 for a studio flat in Balham seems reasonably priced, relative to other properties in the area but it would be helpful to have the sqft of nearby properties to verify this. However, the lack of outdoor space and the smaller size compared to other properties in the area, suggest that while not overpriced, it’s not a particularly outstanding bargain.

The property appears to be in generally good condition from the photos. The kitchen and bathroom seem recently updated or well-maintained. However, it’s a studio flat, and the space might feel somewhat limited for some buyers. While presented well, the overall quality of fixtures and finishes may not be considered top-tier compared to newer or higher-end properties.

Balham is a highly desirable area in South London, known for its excellent transport links (Balham station is nearby), green spaces (Tooting Bec Common), and a vibrant high street with numerous shops, restaurants, and cafes. The proximity to good schools, as indicated in the provided data, further enhances its appeal. Cavendish Road itself is mentioned as a ‘much sought after road’, reinforcing its desirability.

The property has virtually no outdoor space, as indicated by the plot size being 0.00 sq ft. This is a significant drawback for many buyers, especially in London where gardens are a rare commodity.
