Two double bedrooms across split levels, approx. 780 sqft
Open-plan kitchen/reception with hardwood floors and built-in shelving
Own front door and chain-free sale for straightforward completion
Leasehold: small ground rent £50; no service charge recorded
No private garden or dedicated parking; fronts onto pavement
Period mid-terrace construction; likely poor wall insulation
Ground-floor mixed-use/commercial unit — potential or limitations
Local area: excellent transport, but very high crime and deprivation
A characterful two-bedroom split-level maisonette arranged over the first and second floors of a late-Victorian mid-terrace. The apartment is bright and well laid out, with an open-plan kitchen/reception/dining room on the principal floor that benefits from engineered hardwood floors, built-in shelving and plenty of natural light — a practical entertaining space for city living.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a stylish bathroom; the layout makes efficient use of the 780 sqft, giving a comfortable master and a good second room suitable for guests, children or a home office. The property is chain free and has its own front door, a useful practical benefit for purchasers wanting independent access and a straightforward move.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with a small annual ground rent of £50 and no service charge reported. There is no private garden or off-street parking, and the building is a former mixed-use terrace with a commercial unit at ground level. The construction era (c.1900–1929) and solid-brick walls suggest limited cavity insulation — buyers should factor potential energy-efficiency upgrades into plans.
Location suits those wanting quick links into central London: Herne Hill station, local buses and Brockwell Park are within easy reach, plus an independent food and café scene nearby. Note the local area indicators: fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, but higher crime rates and wider area deprivation statistics — this should be considered by buyers and investors when assessing rental tone or family suitability.
