Spacious two‑bed conversion with gated parking and high ceilings.
Two double bedrooms, main with en‑suite
Set within a converted Victorian school on Lyham Road, this two‑bedroom apartment combines period character with contemporary living. Tall arched windows and high ceilings flood the principal rooms with light; the split-level layout provides a sizeable open-plan kitchen/dining area plus a generous mezzanine reception and two double bedrooms, one with an en‑suite. Private gated access and an off‑street parking space are rare conveniences for central Brixton/Clapham living.
Practical points include a very long lease (973 years) and an Energy Rating of C. The apartment is well suited to buyers who prioritise space, character and transport connections — Clapham Common, Brixton amenities and fast links to the City and West End are all close by. Broadband and mobile signal are strong for home working.
Buyers should note the annual service charge of £7,200 (above average) and Council Tax in Band E. There is no private garden; outdoor space is limited to communal/forecourt parking. The building dates from 1875 and was converted to flats in 1997, so buyers wanting a fully modernised apartment should inspect for further finish upgrades or maintenance requirements.
Overall this apartment will appeal to those seeking generous internal volume and period character in a secure gated development, with the trade-offs of higher communal costs and limited private outdoor space made clear up front.
