From the colourful parade of shops that lines it pedestrianised centre, to its long-standing pubs, much-loved restaurants and renowned weekly market, Herne Hill is teeming with independent businesses and its devoted local community works hard to retain its unique charm. There are several outstanding schools and connections are great, with regular trains from Herne Hill station going to London Victoria, Blackfriars and Wimbledon. It’s crowning glory is Brockwell Park, one of the most beautiful parks in London, and its Art Deco lido and café, which are popular all year round.

Property details
We are delighted to offer to market this characterful four/five bedroom, chain free, Victorian terraced house with an East-facing garden. Mayall Road is an attractive residential road, conveniently located an equal distance between Herne Hill (8-minute walk) and Brixton (8-minute walk). The property will appeal to those contemplating moving to both areas and is perfect for anyone who wants to retain a quiet, neighbourhood feel but still have everything within easy reach. With Brockwell Park, the Lido, Herne Hill’s pubs and restaurants and Brixton Village all on your doorstep, there is something to cater for all potential purchasers.
The raised ground floor of this period property comprises a double aspect reception and dining room with wooden flooring, high ceilings, a bay window and feature fireplace, which all help to create a sense of character, plus one of the four double bedrooms, tucked away at the rear of the house. Down a small flight of stairs is the charming country-style kitchen diner, complete with exposed beams, and access onto a West-facing patio garden. Adjacent to the kitchen is a well-proportioned double bedroom/study with reduced head height and access into the rear garden. The property also has the benefit of a large cellar – an extremely versatile space that could be used in various ways to suit the purchaser’s individual requirements, such as children’s playroom, study, or storage etc. Stairs lead to the first floor with three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom spans the width of the building and provides views out over the pretty terrace opposite. The property is packed full of charm, with wooden flooring throughout, and flooded with natural light through lovely sash windows; a blank canvas ready for a purchaser to stamp their own mark.
There are few properties in the area that have as many positive attributes, from the style to the proximity to all the action the area has to offer – we really like it.
