This Victorian mid-terrace blends period charm with practical living across two floors, ideal for a growing family wanting space near Brockwell Park. High ceilings, sash-style windows, decorative cornicing and timber floors give character throughout, while a bay-fronted sitting room and separate dining room create flexible living zones for family life and home working. The long eat-in kitchen opens to a deep private garden that’s larger than many nearby plots—perfect for play, planting and summer entertaining.
The property is freehold and sensibly updated where it counts: the entire front elevation has double glazing and the principal bedroom benefits from acoustic double glazing for quieter nights. The house totals about 943 sq ft with three bedrooms, a family bathroom plus a separate WC. Herne Hill station and frequent buses are within easy reach, and Brockwell Park, cafés, markets and good local schools make this a well-located family choice.
Buyers should note practical facts plainly: the home is average-sized overall with a relatively small plot despite a deep rear garden, and the local area records above-average crime and higher council tax. The layout offers clear scope for further improvement or reconfiguration to increase living space or modernise finishes where desired.
In short, this is a character-rich Victorian terrace offering a ready-to-live-in base with meaningful potential to update and personalise, positioned for parkside living and strong local amenities.
