Property details

Immaculate and perfectly presented, this five double bedroom, three bathroom, three storey family home is a beautiful example of what can be done within a typical Victorian terraced townhouse. Spanning over 2,100 square feet of internal space and nestled peacefully on an attractive residential no-through road, one of Brixton’s most sought-after residential streets. This home offers high quality finishes throughout with a perfectly manicured, private West-facing rear garden, it is sure to tick boxes for many purchasers.

The ground floor comprises a dual-aspect reception, a useful WC and a stunning rear open-plan kitchen. On entering the house, charming Victorian character is immediately displayed with original Victorian tiling and high, corniced ceilings. The reception follows suit, a grand and equally impressive space, perfect for entertaining or relaxing and unwinding. The large bay window adds character whilst flooding the room with natural light, whilst an attractive feature fireplace and intricate ceiling detail add to the ambience of the space.

The sleek and stylish kitchen that follows on demonstrates how perfectly the current owners have married charming period character with modern design. The large and airy room is designed with immaculate attention to detail, providing the ideal family hub. A fully integrated kitchen is complete with high-end appliances, abundant storage options and an appealing breakfast bar. There is comfortable dimensions for a large dining table and multiple skylights running the length of the room add to the appealing atmosphere. Floor to ceiling glass doors allow a seamless flow out to the rear private garden, a thoughtfully designed, West-facing suntrap.

Arranged over the first floor, the principal bedroom is in keeping with the grandeur of the downstairs. A bright and airy space complete with a dressing room and a luxurious family bathroom, finished with double sinks. A second family-sized bathroom and one of the further four bedrooms sits adjacent, peacefully overlooking the rear garden.

The second floor provides the further three well-proportioned double bedrooms. One being particularly impressive as it spans the entire width of the property and boasts abundant sunshine through multiple Velux windows. The further two bedrooms are nestled towards the rear and are separated by a final family-sized bathroom. This stunning property has been renovated top-to-toe by the current owners, finished tastefully in calming neutral tones with high quality fixtures. Having multiple rooms and well over 2,000 square feet means the purchaser will not need to compromise and spaces can be re-purposed to suit requirements. The house also has the added benefit of plenty of storage in the eaves and the cellar.

Situated on Fairmount Road, an attractive, quiet road just off Brixton Hill, this popular street benefits from a quiet setting as the road wraps around onto Beechdale Road, which results in no through traffic, only allowing access to these particular houses on these two desirable roads.

The property is only a short walk away from two of Brixton’s most popular primary schools, the local amenities of vibrant Brixton Hill, the ever-popular Brockwell Park and the fantastic variety of nightlife on offer in central Brixton. With access to the Victoria line at Brixton tube station also within a ten-minute stroll, the location cannot be overstated. A delightful 15 minute walk through Brockwell Park leads you to Herne Hill, offering the option for a 12 minute train straight into the heart of city, along with an array of gastro pubs and the Sunday market. This is a stunning home that has a real mix of characterful features and contemporary design and, together with the unparalleled location, will appeal to a vast range of purchasers.
