Set across the top floors of a handsome Victorian terrace, this split-level two-bedroom maisonette offers generous living space (approx. 1,163 sq ft) and classic period detail. The first floor hosts a bright reception room with a feature fireplace, a large kitchen/dining room and a double bedroom served by a contemporary bathroom. The light-filled top floor principal bedroom features an en-suite shower and useful eaves storage.
Its Clapham South location is a major draw: Abbeville Village’s cafés, restaurants and boutiques, plus the green expanse of Clapham Common, are within easy walking distance. Clapham South underground (Zone 2) provides fast links to the City and West End, while local shops and supermarkets are close by. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent for working from home.
Practical facts to note: the property is leasehold with around 102 years remaining and occupies solid-brick Victorian construction with assumed no wall insulation. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and the home is heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators. Crime levels in the local area are above average and the maisonette’s multi-storey layout includes sloped ceilings in the attic bedroom, which limits some space but adds character.
This home will suit buyers who value period character, generous internal proportions and a prime South London location, and who are comfortable with a leasehold arrangement and potential upgrading (wall insulation and window improvements) to enhance comfort and efficiency.
