Property details

A wonderfully spacious one bedroom garden flat on one of the most sought-after residential streets in Brixton, Sudbourne Road. With over 800 square feet of internal floor space and some fantastic development potential, this exceptional property truly is a rare find.

The property is accessed on the ground floor of a handsome and well-maintained Victorian house and into the hallway complete with original Victorian tiling. This  beautiful flat has countless selling points, although the pièce de résistance has to be the dual-aspect reception room and kitchen diner, semi-separated by original partition doors. A fantastic room with an abundance of original features, including high ceilings, original flooring, a working fireplace, and a stunning bay window. Attractive double doors allow the living space to flow seamlessly onto the un-extended side-return and into the wonderful private garden. The kitchen has all you need, plus ample room for a dining table, providing the ideal hub in which to dine and entertain. Another lovely fireplace adds to the characterful feel of the room.   Along the hallway is a spacious and inviting bathroom, and tucked away quietly to the rear of the flat is the well-sized double bedroom, which looks out on the splendid rear garden, lovingly cared for by the current owner, and including beautiful roses, mulberry, quince and fragrant jasmine. This secluded, south-facing garden, complete with a York stone patio, feels incredibly peaceful: it is easy to forget you are indeed in central Brixton, just a couple of minutes’ stroll from vibrant and buzzing Brixton Hill. This leafy and sunny space is the perfect spot in which to host some garden parties, or just relax with a book, whenever the weather permits. 

The property is a short stroll to the centre of Brixton, and first stop on the Victoria Line at the tube station. At the end of the road is Brixton Hill and its brilliant array of cafes, pubs and restaurants, such as F Mondays, Pizza Brixton, and the White Horse pub, to name a few. In the other direction, purchasers will also benefit from everything that Clapham has to offer within a twelve minute stroll: the multitude of restaurants and bars, and excellent transport links with two Northern Line underground stations; Clapham Common and Clapham North tube stations. Brockwell Park and its iconic Art Deco Lido are a similar distance away and a pleasant walk through the park brings you to Herne Hill Overground station and the many pubs and cafes of thriving Herne Hill.
