A bright, well-presented two-bedroom garden flat set on a Victorian mid-terrace, blending period features with contemporary fittings. High ceilings, a bay window and a feature fireplace give the reception room strong character, while the kitchen and bathroom have been updated with modern tiles and fittings. The private rear garden is a rare, peaceful outdoor space for this part of London.
Practical details are favourable: double glazing was installed after 2002, the property runs on mains gas with a boiler and radiators, and the lease extends to around 103 years with share of freehold. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, so the flat suits home working and everyday connectivity.
Location is a major draw — a short walk to Brixton’s amenities, Brixton Tube (Zone 2) and Brockwell Park’s green space and Lido. Local shops, cafés and the Ritzy cinema are nearby. School provision is mixed locally, with some highly rated primaries and a couple of schools needing improvement — worth checking individual catchments if schooling is a priority.
Be candid about a couple of points: the immediate area scores as deprived with above-average crime levels, and the original solid brick walls likely lack built-in insulation — further insulation or improvement work could be beneficial. Rooms are described as average-sized for the area, and the garden is medium-sized rather than large. Overall, the flat will suit buyers seeking character, outdoor space and excellent transport links, and those prepared to invest small improvements for comfort and efficiency.
