Property details
This is a wonderful two/three double bedroom, purpose-built Victorian maisonette with a private garden, in a pretty residential road in a popular residential pocket between Herne Hill, Brixton and Loughborough Junction. This period property has its own front door with stairs that lead to the first-floor hallway. From the landing, at the rear of the property, you have a spacious eat-in kitchen diner with ample room to both relax and dine. Stairs lead down to a private low maintenance garden, ideal for the warmer months. The bright and airy reception room, which could be used as a third bedroom, is situated at the front of the building with bespoke shelving and characterful sash windows. Sat adjacent to the reception room are two bedrooms and the master bedroom is a great size with built-in storage and views of the neighbouring gardens at the rear. The smaller second/third bedroom acts perfectly as a guest room, a home office, as a rental investment or a child’s bedroom. The property is currently configured as a two bedroom maisonette with a separate kitchen diner at the back of the building with two bedrooms and a lovely separate reception room. Configured as a three bedroom maisonette the room at the front of the building could easily act as a bedroom with an open plan reception and kitchen at the rear. This flexibility is a fantastic selling point, allowing the layout to be altered depending on the purchaser's search parameters. There is also easy access to a large loft space, which offers a handy storage solution for even the most experienced hoarders. The flat is ideally located close to Herne Hill and minutes from the increasingly popular Loughborough Junction and a stone’s throw from Ruskin Park. With Brockwell Park, Herne Hill’s pubs and restaurants and Brixton and Dulwich all on your doorstep, there is something to cater for all potential purchasers. The flat has excellent transport links, with access to Thameslink services (Loughborough Junction and Herne Hill), the East London Line (Denmark Hill) and the Underground (Victoria Line, Brixton) all within walking distance. A lovely chain-free maisonette in a lovely area, a short distance from Herne Hill and Brixton town centres but far enough away to retain a sleepy, neighbourhood feel.
