Flaxman Road, Camberwell

£585,000

Well-presented two double bedroom flat with a Freehold-share, own front door, and a part-private/part-shared west-facing garden.

Find it on the lower ground floor of a smart bay-fronted Victorian house, which puts you within easy reach of Loughborough Junction trains (three minutes by foot, Zone 2), central Camberwell, and central Brixton too.

Smart railings front the house. Open into a welcoming hall with the first (the largest) of your bedrooms set to your right. It’s over 15 feet by over 12 feet and carpeted, in a pastel hue, and it has an attractive fireplace. Custom-made shutters grace the bay window.

At the end of the hallway, you open into the large reception room. Immediately to your left is the neat internal independent kitchen. The reception room is so generous - zone seating and dining areas easily - at over 16 feet by over 13 feet.

French doors open out to the side-return area of the garden (demised to the flat, as is the area along the north boundary). This widens at the full garden, where a generous shared lawn impresses.

The windowed bathroom wonderfully doubles as a utility room (it’s plumbed for a washing machine). Fittings are smart and contemporary.

Your second bedroom has two windows onto the garden, and is a respectable size - at 10 feet by over 9 feet.

Your closest station is Loughborough Junction. Brixton (regular and tube) and Denmark Hill stations are easily walkable too.

Central Camberwell has a strong offering of places to eat and drink for all budgets, alongside useful shops, banks and a Morrison’s supermarket. Some of our favourite restaurants are The Camberwell Arms, Silk Road, The Crooked Well and Theo’s. Cafe culture is also strong.

In the opposite direction, head to Brixton Village for a brilliant selection of food and drink outlets. And central Brixton is home to established greats: The Brixton Academy and The Ritzy Cinema.

Ruskin and Myatt’s Fields parks are your local Victorian parks, both have bandstands and community events galore, and Brockwell Park with popular lido is an easy bus ride or cycle.

Camberwell Green hosts a Saturday Farmers’ Market 10am-2pm. Keeping fit is easy round this way - with Camberwell leisure centre on Artichoke Place a short distance away, plus Zen Yoga Studio and Butterfly Tennis Club at the foot of Camberwell Grove. Local schools include Lyndhurst and Crawford primaries.
