Bright split-level one-bedroom with private roof terrace, near Brockwell Park and Brixton transport.
Chain-free one-bedroom split-level apartment
Light and characterful, this split-level one-bedroom flat occupies the uppermost floor of a Victorian end-of-terrace and offers a private roof terrace and open-plan living. Vaulted ceilings, multiple skylights and exposed beams give the main reception a generous, airy feel while contemporary flooring and alcoves add period charm. The integrated kitchen and dining area suit social evenings and easy everyday living.
The double bedroom sits peacefully down a short flight of stairs with a leafy outlook and built-in mirrored wardrobes. A smart bathroom with a bath and overhead shower completes the accommodation. Outside, the paved roof terrace is a useful private space for al-fresco dining or relaxing in the sun — a rare asset at this level of the building.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with 101 years remaining and sold chain-free, making it straightforward to buy but still subject to leasehold rules and any associated costs. The building is solid-brick with no installed wall insulation assumed, and the double glazing was fitted before 2002 — both worth bearing in mind for future energy-efficiency improvements. The split-level, top-floor layout involves stairs and offers no private garden.
Location is a clear strength for first-time buyers: quiet Craster Road sits moments from local bakeries, cafés and pubs, with Brockwell Park a short stroll away. Brixton and Herne Hill are walkable and multiple tube, Overground and Thameslink services are within easy reach, making commuting and leisure trips straightforward.
