Property details

A fantastic opportunity to extend and completely refurbish this imposing four-bedroom Victorian terraced house set on Stansfield Road, a desirable residential road nestled between Brixton, Clapham and Stockwell town centres. This blank canvas is situated in the heart of Brixton – just a short stroll from the Ritzy and the excellent array of shops and restaurants in Brixton Village. The location will be perfect for anyone who wants to be close to the action, yet retain a sense of calm: this quiet, one-way street feels a world away from the hustle and bustle of Brixton town centre. Stansfield Road is within an extremely popular pocket of terraced streets and will appeal to purchasers considering the Brixton, Clapham and Stockwell areas.

This three-storey Victorian house is in need of complete modernisation, providing the perfect chance for a purchaser to use their inspiration to end up with a family home that completely reflects their own personal taste. This is a rare opportunity with nearly 1700 square feet of living space and could be extended at the rear or up into the loft, subject to the usual permissions.

The ground floor comprises a reception room with bay window and the adjacent dining room with access onto the un-extended side return and an eat-in kitchen, leading onto a mature garden. A large cellar offers excellent storage options. On the first floor, the spacious master bedroom runs the entire width of the house and benefits from a lovely bay window, allowing natural light to flood the room. Two further generous double bedrooms are tucked away in the centre and at the rear of the property along with a bathroom and separate W.C. Upstairs on the second floor are two further comfortable double bedrooms of a similar size to those below. The house is packed full of character, a rare find, and a fantastic opportunity for purchasers who are looking to completely refurbish a four-bedroom Victorian house in a great location.

As far as locations go, it doesn’t get much more central: Brixton station is just a few minutes’ walk away, first stop on the Victoria Line, arguably the best line on the London Underground for fast links into central London and beyond. The restaurants, nightlife and shopping that have made Brixton so popular are all on the doorstep, making this property an ideal purchase for anyone looking to be as close as possible to the amenities on offer. Clapham High Street and Stockwell are both within a ten-minute stroll with access to the Northern Line and the Overground.

Brixton area highlights

Brixton is a melting pot of culture, cuisine and creativity. An explosion of inventive, new restaurants, pop-ups, fashion stores and art galleries sit alongside the many great pubs, music venues and nightclubs that have been around for years. Transport links are excellent, with London Underground (Victoria Line) trains reaching central London in 12 minutes. If you’re craving green space, Brockwell Park and its famed Art Deco lido are close by. Brixton brings together all the best things about London and is one of the most vibrant and diverse places to live south of the river.
