Ferndale Road, Brixton

£625,000

Ruddy lovely three double bedroom ex-LA house-sized apartment (it is over 1000 square feet!), delivered over two floors. The flat is within 'Fosbury House', right off the road, in well-tended grounds.

It is a quiet brick-built block in a brilliant position, placing you just five minutes from Brixton Station, and 13 from Clapham North Station.

Take the stairs or lift to your own front door on the third floor. Once in, there’s a handy little area to your right - perfect for storing coats and shoes (there is also space for an extra fridge/freezer).

Next up, you have a huge open-plan space (running over 24 feet!) - incorporating reception, dining and kitchen areas, with three east-facing double-glazed windows (the property is double-glazed throughout). Classy herringbone flooring flows through the whole floor. The timeless fitted kitchen hosts a large ceramic Butler sink. Fitted book shelves and a slim base cupboard feature in the near alcove in the reception area. An exposed-brick column is a further welcome feature.

Up the stairs, two carpeted double bedrooms each have a large west-facing window. These are 13 feet by over 10 feet, and over 11 feet by over 9 feet. The carpeted master bedroom is circa 14 feet each way (big!), with built-in wardrobes and two east-facing windows to leafy vistas.

Finally, find the property’s windowed shower room (with traditional basin, lavatory and fittings, marble-effect tiling, an over-bath shower, and boutique hotel style wall lights) and an additional w.c. next door, with cool rouge walls.

Brixton is bursting with cool spots! Canova Hall is very close for brunch/pizzas, in an old department store setting. The Ritzy Cinema and Cafe is just 10 minutes from your door. Your local and popular pubs include The Trinity Arms and The Duke of Edinburgh. Brixton Village has a tantalising global offering of food and drink options for all tastes and budgets.

For more options, Clapham, Herne Hill, Camberwell and Peckham are all easily-reached.

For transport, of course Brixton is great for tube (Victoria Line trains), buses and trains. Clapham North Station gives you the Northern Line too.

For great green space, you are closest to Brockwell Park and Clapham Common.
