Beautifully presented, this two double bedroom, two bathroom flat is arranged over the ground floor of an attractive Victorian mansion block with its own private rear garden, tucked away moments from Brixton High Street. Canterbury Crescent is a five-minute walk to all of Brixton’s popular amenities, vast choice of eateries, bars and the first stop on the Victoria line.

Larger than average with well-proportioned rooms throughout, this characterful period flat displays an appealing mix of endearing Victorian features and contemporary design. The heart of the home is the semi-open plan reception at the front of the building, a cosy lounge area is flooded with natural light from the large bay window and feeds through to an ample eat-in kitchen diner. The kitchen offers generous storage options and surface space, ideal for entertaining guests and hosting dinner parties.

The two comfortable double bedrooms are both peacefully positioned overlooking the private rear garden. The principal is complete with an en-suite bathroom and direct garden access, allowing the outside to breeze into the room and through the flat creating a lovely atmosphere. The second bedroom displays a beautiful feature fireplace and both rooms have built-in storage.

High ceilings and large windows contribute to the bright and airy feel throughout the flat, which has been carefully maintained and is decorated in tasteful neutral tones throughout. The property is ready to move into straight away and is being sold chain-free.
