Property details

An impressively spacious two double bedroom, two bathroom garden flat, offering a large private garden, your own private entrance and incredible dimensions throughout. This generously proportioned apartment is nestled within a grand Victorian terraced house, situated in a private cul-de-sac off the main road. Desirable and leafy, this residential road is tucked away off Brixton Hill, benefiting from a quiet setting as the entrance is a no-through road, allowing access to these particular houses only.

With over 1200 square feet of internal living space, this two-bedroom flat offers unusually large proportions. Purchasers will be hard-pressed to find comparable properties with dimensions that rival this apartment and the total internal floor space will be similar or larger than period houses within the immediate vicinity, with higher asking prices. The added benefit of the garden spanning 46 feet makes this a very unique property and a real gem of Brixton.

The heart of the home is ideally located at the rear, with bi-folding glass doors that allow a seamless feel straight out into the attractive and leafy private garden. There is plenty of room to relax and unwind, to dine or entertain as well as a contemporary kitchen, equipped with a range cooker and generous storage options. This truly is an ideal room for hosting.

Two bedrooms reside at opposite ends of the property, perfectly private, ideal for sharers, renting the spare room or for guests. The second bedroom could easily be repurposed to suit the needs of the purchaser. The master bedroom is a particularly impressive room, spacious and bright, flooded with natural light from the large bay window and complete with a stunning free-standing roll-top bathtub, ideal for relaxing after a long day. Both are genuine doubles, and the spare room has a convenient en-suite bathroom. The second bathroom is a recently fitted, stylish bathroom complete with tasteful tiling.

The entire property is tastefully decorated throughout, meaning that the property is ready to move into immediately, where the purchaser may stamp their own mark over time. The property further benefits from a free parking space in front of the building.

Situated a ten-minute stroll to all that central Brixton has to offer, the popular establishments on Brixton Hill are also easily reached at the end of the road, including F Mondays, Stir Coffee, Pizza Brixton and the White Horse Pub. This elegant apartment is ideal for anyone who wants to be close to the action while maintaining a sense of calm. The new owner will have the best of both worlds, with everything on offer in the hustle and bustle of central Brixton, yet will be able to retire to the quieter, village-like community that has been developed around Brixton Hill. First stop on the Victoria Line at Brixton tube station is only a ten-minute stroll away, whisking you into central London and the City within a few minutes. The green open spaces of Brockwell Park are also a short stroll, covering the wants and needs for the majority of potential purchasers.

Chain-free.
