This unusual split-level apartment occupies over 1,200 sqft within a converted period property, offering generous living space that suits couples or growing families. Two double bedrooms plus a separate study/dressing room give flexibility for home working or storage. A private patio and off-street parking are rare central-London extras, while the long lease (share of freehold) removes common leasehold headaches.
The layout favours open-plan living with high ceilings and character features typical of a 1930s conversion; the large living room and sizable rooms create scope for a comfortable family home. The property is chain free and close to Brixton, Camberwell and Loughborough Junction amenities, with several well-regarded primary and secondary schools nearby.
Buyers should note practical issues: there is a single bathroom for the flat, council tax is above average, and the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and the EPC is a C. Overall the flat is well located and substantially roomy but will benefit from targeted updating to maximise comfort and energy efficiency.
This is a good opportunity for buyers seeking space and character with minimal lease concerns. For families prioritising local schools and transport links, the flat’s size and outside space provide a clear advantage; for investors, the long lease and chain-free position are attractive, though some refurbishment may be required to boost rental or resale value.
