Property details

An impressive example of a five bedroom, three bathroom Victorian end-of-terrace house, this beautiful home on Gateley Road is surrounded by similarly grand and elegant houses; either side and opposite. However, this one really is something special. With over 2300 square feet of internal living space on offer and an unrivalled central location, perfectly sandwiched between amenities in Brixton, Clapham and Stockwell. This stunning end-of-terrace house will appeal to purchasers who are contemplating moving to all three of these sought-after locations; with a varied array of nightlife, restaurants, shops and transport links on the doorstep, purchasers will be spoiled for choice.

To the front of the property is a wonderfully bright and airy, dual-aspect reception room, complete with a charming bay window, stylish shutters and feature fireplace. High ceilings really amplify the sense of space, which has been completely opened up to create a stunning area in which to relax, dine and entertain guests. The reception room flows seamlessly into the wonderfully bright eat-in kitchen – which has been fully extended to make use of all available space. This has created the ideal hub of the home, boasting a sociable breakfast bar and providing all you may need in terms of storage, worktop space and appliances, as well as plenty of room for a large dining area, a fantastic entertaining space and sure to wow guests. Along with the skylights, double glass doors allow light to flood the space, leading onto the rear garden. This lovely, well-maintained garden provides the ideal spot in which to unwind with a book or host BBQs throughout the warmer months, and feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

On the first floor sit four bedrooms and a modern family bathroom. The master bedroom is a fantastic size, running the width of the property, with a large square bay window that helps to create an airy feel, fitted wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. Adjacent is a further spacious double bedroom, with fitted storage and benefiting from a pleasant view of the garden. Two further bedrooms are tucked away quietly to the rear of the house. There is a stylish family bathroom which serves the bedrooms on this floor. Stairs lead up to the loft conversion, which has been superbly executed to provide a fifth double bedroom, boasting a sleek en-suite shower room and some handy storage.

This is an exquisite home, which could be moved into stress-free, benefiting from the hard work that has been completed to extend and renovate and resulting in the perfect mix of period features and tasteful, modern design.

With a larger than average square footage, five bedrooms, and a secluded garden to match, it is hard to remind yourself that you are indeed in the heart of Brixton, located on a sought-after residential street. This exquisite home is situated a short stroll from The Ritzy and the excellent array of shops and restaurants in Brixton Village. The location will be perfect for anyone who wants to be close to the action, yet retain a sense of calm: this quiet street feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of central Brixton. As far as locations go, it doesn’t get much more central: Brixton station is just a five minute walk, first stop on the Victoria Line, arguably the best line on the London Underground for fast links into central London and beyond. The restaurants, nightlife and shopping that have made Brixton so popular are all on the doorstep, making this property an ideal purchase for anyone looking to be as close as possible to the amenities on offer. Clapham High Street and Stockwell are both within a ten-minute stroll with access to the Northern Line and the Overground, covering the wants and needs of the majority of purchasers. Early registration of interest strongly advised.
