Guide Price £10,000*
Wednesday 28 October 2026 at 1.00pm – Claridge's, Brook Street, Mayfair, London W1K 4HR
THE LAND
A freehold parcel of about 100 sq m (1,076 sq ft), scaled from the title plan and subject to measured survey. It lies immediately beside the parade at 125 Streatham Vale and has a frontage to the road behind a red-brick wall. From the wider front area, it narrows into a long strip of about 37 metres, running behind neighbouring properties along the line of the River Graveney. The land is overgrown with trees and shrubs and has no planning permission.
THE RIVER
Land beside a watercourse normally carries riparian rights and responsibilities. No fishing or other river rights are noted on the register. Works on or near the river are likely to need Environment Agency consent, and the land may be at risk of flooding. Buyers should make their own enquiries.

On the east side of Streatham Vale (B272), near Sherwood Avenue and Woodmansterne Road, with local shops on the doorstep. Streatham Common, Norbury and Mitcham Eastfields stations are nearby, as are Streatham Common and Streatham Vale Park.
TENURE
Freehold, title absolute, TGL326580. The land is subject to restrictive covenants dating from 1925 and 1926, which cover buildings, sheds, caravans, advertisements and storage. See the legal pack.
