Set on a tree-lined stretch of Herne Hill Road, this Edwardian split-level maisonette combines period charm with practical living over two upper floors. The layout provides three double bedrooms, a principal bedroom with en-suite, and a bright front reception with bay window and original fireplace — appealing for families or professionals who value character and space for home life.
The eat-in kitchen is modern and well-equipped with ample storage, and the property benefits from a private patio garden for outdoor use. A large loft offers significant storage and potential for conversion (subject to consents), while fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support remote working and streaming.
Important practical points: the property is a leasehold with 98 years remaining and a modest ground rent (£10). The overall internal size is relatively small (c.775 sq ft) and the building’s solid-brick construction likely lacks cavity wall insulation, so further energy upgrades may be needed. Local crime is reported above average for the area, and the immediate neighbourhood scores as a deprived inner-city locality despite strong transport links and nearby good schools.
Positioned close to Ruskin Park, Brockwell Park and multiple rail connections (Herne Hill, Loughborough Junction, Denmark Hill), the maisonette offers a desirable location for commuting and local amenities. This is a characterful, well-located home with scope to improve energy efficiency and personalise finishes — a solid choice for growing families or professionals seeking period features within easy reach of central London.
