Property description
An attractive exterior really grabs your attention here. Standing out from a row of rarely available period houses along the popular Baytree Road, this four bedroom home is a smart move. With a location that's equally impressive you really couldn't want for more - Brixton station is a five minute stroll for a zone 2 connection for commuters and families will marvel at the close proximity to Sudbourne school. Aside from the outstanding Ofsted rating, it'll help turn the morning school run into a saunter! You're also just a short walk from the popular Corpus Christi RC School. Brixton supplies all the bars, eateries and transport links any Londoner could ever hope for and Brockwell Park is a short 10 minute stroll.
Pause to marvel at the imposing exterior and head into the house through the front door with pretty stained glass. Arriving in the entrance hall you'll spy lovely tessellated floor tiles leading to a handy understairs loo. Head left into the first reception, which has a lovely view of the street through a wide bay filled with casement windows. A stunning original (working) fireplace will catch your eye with its gorgeous tiling and wooden mantel. The second reception sits to the rear and has a mesmerising Edwardian mantel and original fireplace. There’s low level storage on either side of the chimney breast and we love the stripped wooden floors.
At the end of the hall you meet the kitchen/diner - it's a great family space. There is a tiled floor for easy cleaning and two large side aspect sash windows with bespoke shutters brightens up the space nicely. Take note of the charming original dresser and granite worktops! Extras include a five ring gas hob, Neff twin oven, laundry cupboard, integrated fridge/freezer, integrated dishwasher and nifty pull-out bin storage. End the day with a glass of bubbly on the decked patio - double doors lead out from the kitchen.
The first floor treats you to a wide and long landing with overhead skylight. The first bedroom is front facing with a feature fireplace and fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom also shares the front spot with a cute bay window – it’s a fab single room. Facing rear is bedroom three with midnight blue carpets and more fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom is fully tiled with a roll top tub and walk-in shower. The suite is white and there are two side aspect mottled casement windows. The fourth bedroom is rear facing (lovely and peaceful) with lavender walls and picture rails.
You'll just love the locale! Although mature and residential it leaves you within easy reach of not just Brixton but Clapham and Abbeville Village too. The 137 is just around the corner and will whisk you to Sloane Square and Knightsbridge. Clapham North tube is about 10 minute walk for the Northern Line or you've got the Victoria Line in Brixton. Brixton's all a buzz with the newly developed Windrush Square offering a marvellous place to sit, chat and drink coffee. This is before we mention the ocean of funky bars, cafes and restaurants on offer. The Brixton Village covered market is gaining world-wide acclaim. The Ritzy cinema will keep any audience happy with its thoughtful mix of art house and mainstream titles and 'The White Horse' really rocks out on the weekend. Clapham and the ever popular Abbeville Village are but a 10 minute stroll in the other direction. It'll take you the first three years to sample all their cuisine (Carmen tapas is our fave!) and you can walk it off on Clapham Common. Nearby Acre Lane is moving up in the world of late with a number of top end eateries opening. 'Upstairs' and 'Boqueria' are each well worth a visit. Clapham High Street will keep you busy whatever the weather. All in all a real winner!
