Property details

Bright, spacious and characterful, this charming one bedroom garden flat is arranged over the ground floor of a handsome Victorian terraced house on ideally located, Ballater Road. This highly sought after location is almost equidistant between Clapham and Brixton High Streets, plus the Northern and Victoria lines, with a fantastic choice of amenities in every direction.

Over 600 square feet of well-appointed living space means the property has a spacious feel throughout, plus garden access from both the living area and the bedroom provides a beautifully airy atmosphere throughout the entire property. The Reception at the front of the home is particularly attractive, a large bay window and feature fireplace add to the ambience, with hardwood floors that run through to the modern eat-in kitchen at the rear. The kitchen and reception have an open-plan feel but have the option to be separated by the double doors between the two rooms, making the spaces ideal for entertaining or lounging in a peaceful environment. The garden is particularly private and low-maintenance, perfect for savouring the British summertime and hosting.

The bedroom is peacefully located opening out onto the garden, and is conveniently located adjacent to a modern bathroom. The property further benefits from a demised cellar, perfect for storage and hiding items unused on a regular basis.

The bars and restaurants of Acre Lane are a short walk and within an ten-minute stroll down the road is everything that Brixton has to offer, from music venues and the extremely popular Brixton Village to large brand shops and cracking transport links, first stop on the Victoria tube line. Vibrant and diverse Clapham High Street is a similar distance in the other direction, offering great nightlife with the cafes and boutique shops within Abbeville Village, Venn Street and Clapham Old Town all close-by. Potential purchasers will benefit from both the Northern Line (Clapham North, Clapham Common and Clapham South tube stations) and the Victoria Line (Brixton tube station). Having a park within close proximity is more important than ever and this property has the advantage of two wonderful green open spaces within walking distance; Clapham Common and Brockwell Park with its iconic 1930s Lido are both within reach. There are few properties in the area that have as many positive attributes, from the style, size, outside space and the proximity to all the action the area has to offer.

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.
