Walters House, London SW16: a former Tepilo listing

Historical listing archive: This property was advertised through Tepilo in March 2018. It is not currently for sale through Tepilo. The £400,000 guide price and all property details below are historical. They must not be treated as a current valuation, sales listing or description of the property's present condition.

This page preserves the recoverable details of a two-bedroom flat at Walters House in Norbury, south London. The former listing described a newly finished apartment with two bathrooms, one reception room and a kitchen-diner. It was marketed with a guide price of £400,000 in March 2018.

The exact flat number was not included in the archived Tepilo page. We have not matched the listing to one of the individual flats shown in later property records, because doing so would involve guesswork.

The former listing at a glance

These details reproduce factual information shown on the recovered page. They have not been checked against a current title, lease, Energy Performance Certificate or inspection.

The property as it was described

The archived listing presented the flat as a modern two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment. Its main living space combined a reception area with a kitchen-diner, while large front-facing windows were said to bring natural light into the lounge and main bedroom.

The kitchen was described as having high-gloss white units, granite worktops and integrated appliances. The recovered text named a dishwasher, washing machine, fridge-freezer and Zanussi cooking appliances. Two parts of the original page disagreed about whether the hob was gas or ceramic electric, so the fuel type cannot be confirmed from the archive.

The main bedroom led to its own shower room. A separate bathroom served the second bedroom and the rest of the flat. The listing also referred to hardwood flooring in the lounge, carpets in both bedrooms, tiled bathrooms, double glazing and recessed lighting.

Recovered room measurements

The following measurements appeared on the original listing. They should be regarded as historic marketing information rather than dimensions verified for a present-day transaction.

The archived page included headings for a floorplan and an Energy Performance Certificate, but no reliable floor area or EPC rating was recoverable. Neither has been added here.

Fixtures and specifications recorded in 2018

The former listing referred to:

• high-gloss kitchen cupboards and drawers
• granite worktops
• integrated kitchen appliances
• contemporary white bathroom fittings
• Hansgrohe bathroom fixtures
• a heated towel rail in the en-suite
• hardwood flooring in the lounge
• carpets in both bedrooms
• tiled bathroom walls and floors
• recessed spotlights and feature lighting
• smoke detectors
• UPVC double-glazed windows
• a ten-year NHBC structural warranty

This is a record of the specifications used in the 2018 marketing. It does not confirm that every item remains at the property, is still in the same condition or is covered by any warranty today.

Lease and service-charge information

The recovered page identified the flat as leasehold. It also displayed the figures “122” next to the lease-expiry field and “754” next to the service-charge field.

The surviving wording was incomplete. It did not clearly state the lease commencement date, the precise number of years remaining or the period covered by the service charge. For that reason, this archive does not present those figures as current lease terms or describe £754 as an annual charge.

Anyone considering a flat at Walters House now should obtain the title, current lease, management pack and up-to-date service-charge accounts for the specific flat. Details attached to one flat in a development should never be assumed to apply to another.

Walters House and the location

Walters House is at 1423A London Road, Norbury, London SW16 4AH. Current property-record pages show that the building contains a number of flats, but they do not establish which one was advertised on Tepilo under listing number 39889.

The original page promoted the apartment as being close to shops, restaurants, schools, supermarkets and a leisure centre. It placed Norbury railway station approximately 0.2 miles away and described it as about a five-minute walk.

The listing also referred to rail services to London Victoria and London Bridge, bus connections towards Streatham, Balham, Brixton and Croydon, and access to Norbury Park and Streatham Common.

Those were location and journey claims made in 2018. Routes, stopping patterns, journey times, businesses and local services can change. Current travel information should be checked with the relevant transport operator before making a decision.

Why the listing attracted attention

The flat received national property coverage while it was on the market. A March 2018 Daily Mail property article described Sarah Beeny as choosing the two-bedroom London flat as a “bargain of the month”. The architecture practice Pivotal also identifies Walters House as one of its projects and links to that contemporary coverage.

That coverage helps establish the history and significance of the old Tepilo URL. It does not mean the property is available now, nor does it support a present-day price or investment claim.

What we cannot confirm

The archive does not establish:

• the number or postal identity of the flat in the old listing
• the property's current owner or occupier
• whether the flat has since been sold, let or altered
• its present condition, contents or fixtures
• its current market value or rental value
• the current length and terms of its lease
• the period covered by the service-charge figure shown in 2018
• the current ground rent, service charge or other building costs
• the floor area or EPC rating
• whether the 2018 transport times and local amenities remain accurate

Later sales records and current advertisements for other flats at Walters House must not be merged with this page. They may concern a different property within the building.

Considering a property at Walters House today

If a flat in the building is offered for sale, rely on its current particulars and your own professional checks. A buyer would normally want to review:

1. The title register and title plan for the individual flat.
2. The full lease, remaining term and any restrictions.
3. Current service-charge accounts, planned major works and reserve funds.
4. Ground-rent provisions and any review formula.
5. The management pack and building-insurance arrangements.
6. A current Energy Performance Certificate.
7. The condition of the flat and communal areas through an appropriate survey or inspection.
8. Any relevant fire-safety, cladding or building-safety information.
9. Current transport links, parking arrangements and local services.

The historic £400,000 guide price from March 2018 should not be used to estimate what any flat in the building is worth in 2026. Flat values can differ according to size, floor, condition, lease length, outlook, service charges and the date of sale.

Sources and record notes

This archive was reconstructed on 28 August 2026 from:

• the original Tepilo listing captured by the Internet Archive in March 2018
• the contemporary Daily Mail property article
• Pivotal Architectural Services, which identifies Walters House as a project
• Rightmove's current sold-price record for the SW16 4AH postcode
• Zoopla's current property-record page for London Road, SW16 4AH

The Internet Archive capture is the primary source for the old price, layout, measurements, specification and marketing description. Rightmove and Zoopla were used only to confirm the building address and the existence of multiple flats. No later record has been assigned to the old listing.
