1st and 2nd floor Victorian terraced flat, located on a quiet street adjoining a park, but with great road and public transport links within seconds. The flat retains many of its period features including three Victorian fireplaces, high ceilings, original coving and corbels - but has been decorated and furnished in a contemporary style that is instantly striking. Wooden floorboards have been exposed, restored and soundproofed throughout the bedrooms, hallway and large living room, giving a very desirable look to the whole property. All windows are wooden sashes with the two main bedrooms being double glazed in 2015. The kitchen has a newly installed Neff Circotherm oven and Neff 5 ring gas hob, plus integrated fridge, freezer, washing machine and dishwasher, as well as a very reliable Worcester combi boiler. A full height alcove pantry adds loads of storage space to the large amount of kitchen cupboards. Both of the main bedrooms are almost an identical large size, which makes this flat ideal for a pair of owners or even gives flexibility to use one room as a dining room if needed. The hallway has a double height vaulted ceiling with skylight, giving an airy feeling leading to all the rooms. The family bathroom has a freestanding roll tap bath and a separate shower enclosure with luxurious bucket head shower. The third bedroom is ideal as a small double or large single, or would make a great home office or nursery. Finally, a massive full height loft spans the area above the kitchen and living room and is perfect for a stunning ensuite loft conversion, as many of the houses in the street have. The building is oriented east west, so the two main bedrooms get the morning sun and the living room is awash with afternoon sun and evening sunsets over London. Both bedrooms also have a view over a playing field, so there are no buildings overlooking nearby - thus gives a spacious feel - plus the double glazed wooden windows make the rooms quiet and have had the centre rails removed leaving large picture windows in a traditional sash. In the Spring and Summer, a family of foxes and squirrels can be watched playing outside the bedroom windows, almost making you feel like you are in the country - a real joy rarely experienced in the city. The loft is fully insulated with Celotex panels on the verticals and Celotex topped with insulation rolls at joist level - this is covered with plyboard across the whole area, so the loft is fully usable as a fantastic storage area and easily accessible though a wall door. The roof was completely replaced in 2005 and is in great condition The roof rafters were treated for dry rot as a precaution, at the same time, and still have 10 years of guarantee remaining. The property is very safe, being on the 1st and 2nd floor, but also benefits from an alarm with multiple zone protection, door intercom to the front of the property and internal and external alarm sounders. Although a really peaceful road, the A23 to Brighton and South Circular roads are right on the doorstep, which is fantastic for car drivers, as is the free on street parking. The nearest bus stop is 30 seconds away with every bus stopping there heading past Brixton Tube at the bottom of the hill, a ride of around 5-7 minutes. Streatham Hill overground is a 2 minute bus ride, which gives access to London Bridge direction as well as Clapham Junction 3 stops away. A Sainsbury local, atm, take-aways etc are also 30 seconds away by the local bus stop. The short trip to the bottom of the hill takes you to Brixton Academy, Ritzy Cinema, Brixton Market and Brixton Village (indoor eateries and independent shops), four fantastic reasons for living in this wonderfully diverse area. In the other direction on Streatham High Road are pubs, restaurants and Odeon cinema, plus a Tesco Superstore in Brixton and Streatham and a handful of Sainsbury Locals in both directions. Holmewood Gardens is a small park on our doorstep, whereas Brockwell Park is a short walk away, leading you to undulating walks, ponds, secret gardens, childrens play areas and tennis courts. Host to the famous Lambeth Country Show weekend in July, Brockwell Park is a special place in summer sun or winter snow. This small area of friendly Victorian terraces is coveted by people wanting to have the buzz of Brixton within immediate reach, but without having to endure the noise and constant movement. A relaxed school zone with fantastic pubs like The White Horse and Elm Park Tavern with walking distance. A haven for artists and creatives, inspired by the urban whirl and green spaces alike.
