Property details

Ideally situated, with two double bedrooms and almost 800 square feet of internal space, this attractive maisonette with its own front door is set within a handsome Victorian end-of-terrace building on Strathleven Road. The property boasts a well-maintained exterior and a fantastic position within a highly sought-after residential pocket between Brixton and Clapham High Streets.

This charming property offers endearing period character throughout, with high ceilings, lovely feature fireplaces and large sash windows that flood each room with sunlight and fresh air. The spacious reception is perfect for entertaining, with comfortable dimensions to dine providing the perfect spot to host dinner parties and entertain guests. The separate kitchen is well-equipped and contemporary, providing plenty of storage options and a clever layout that maximises the square footage on offer.

Both bedrooms are well-proportioned doubles and very similar in size, creating a perfect opportunity for anyone looking to rent an additional bedroom or share with friends. The rooms are both bright, airy and comfortable with great space for additional storage. The apartment is completed by a modern bathroom and separate W.C. The property also benefits from substantial demised loft space, perfect for storing all of those items that are not used on a regular basis. This charming and ideally located flat is in great condition throughout, offering tasteful décor and stylish finishes, ready to move into where the purchaser can stamp their own mark in time.

This handsome Victorian terrace is nestled within a popular pocket of SW2, sandwiched between Brixton and Clapham. The cafes, bars and restaurants of up-and-coming Acre Lane are at the end of the road, with local heroes such as Boqueria Tapas, The Beast of Brixton, and Aries Bakehouse, to name a few, all on the doorstep. Within a further few minutes’ walk down the road, purchasers will find themselves in the heart of Brixton, with Brixton Village, POP Brixton, The Ritzy cinema and the legendary music venues, Brixton Academy and Brixton Electric, all at their fingertips. In the other direction, is vibrant and bustling Clapham High Street offering cracking nightlife, culinary delights and the green open spaces of Clapham Common. A short 10-minute stroll brings you to Abbeville Village with an abundance of local shops including The Ginger Pig butchers, MacFarlanes Dairy and the charming pub, The Abbeville. Potential purchasers will benefit from the Northern Line (Clapham North and Clapham Common tube stations) and the Victoria Line (Brixton tube station).

Transport links are excellent, with London Underground (Victoria Line) trains reaching central London in 12 minutes. If you’re craving green space, Brockwell Park and its famed Art Deco lido are close by.
