Bonnington Square, Vauxhall

£525,000

Genuinely rare opportunity to bag your own slice of beautiful Bonnington Square. This is a characterful, architecturally-treated one bedroom ground floor garden flat of 481 square feet (excluding the handy cellar square feet: 113).

Bonnington Square is an incredible and magical hidden gem of a location (thankfully, saved from redevelopment in the seventies) - a genuine oasis, boasting two community gardens: Bonnington Square Pleasure Gardens and Harleyford Road Community Garden. It is wonderfully quiet, terrifically leafy, and understandably sought after. You will be part of a vibrant, green-fingered community in the heart of central London.

Walk just five minutes to Vauxhall (yep!) for tubes (Victoria line) and trains. Walk 10 to Oval for Northern line services and a popular Saturday market by the church.

You share a hall with one flat upstairs. Take a right through your own front door and from your entrance lobby, open the door ahead for your bedroom. This is over 11 feet each way, with a duo of west-facing sash windows (great for afternoon light) graced with pitch pine shutters, a built-in wardrobe to the near alcove, and further built-in shelves to the second alcove and on the opposite wall.

Left of the hall and you open into your living room of over 12 feet by over 10 feet, with built-in shelving to the alcoves, and more stripped wooden floors.

On through and you have your eat-in kitchen, of over 15 feet by nearly 10 feet, with a traditional-style slate-tiled floor. Modern red high-gloss base units are teamed with wooden worktops. Custom-made doors open wide to the garden. Your low-maintenance walled garden faces east = excellent early sun.

Beyond the kitchen is your smart windowed bathroom. This has a modern white suite, metro tilling, an over-bath shower and good storage.

What’s about? Italo is a dreamy spot on your doorstep - for fabulous coffee, brunch or lunch. Bonnington Cafe & Community Centre is a unique community-run hub serving up vegan/vegetarian meals and yoga, Pilates and music nights for you and your neighbours.

There is a gym and swimming pool at the end of the road. Vauxhall and Oval have many and varied restaurants, cafes, bars and pubs, plus the delightful green spaces of Vauxhall Park, Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens, and Kennington Park.
