Flaxman Road, Camberwell

£650,000

Lovely two bedroom conversion apartment of 734 square feet, delivered over the first and second floors of a very handsome Victorian townhouse.

The flat is accompanied by a private west-facing balcony (access this directly from your eat-in kitchen).

You are within easy reach of Loughborough Junction trains (five minutes by foot, Fare Zone 2), central Camberwell, central Brixton, and Myatt’s Fields Park. Bus travel is easy too, from nearby Coldharbour Lane.

In the front gate and the main front door is up ahead. From your shared hall (there is just one flat below yours), open your own front door - at raised ground level, then take stairs to the first floor landing, noting the pleasing window on your way.

First up ahead is the first bedroom - this one is over 12 feet by over 7 feet, with neutral walls (as throughout) and a pale carpet.

To your left, you open into the eat-in kitchen, of over 12 feet by over 10 feet. Cool metro tiles and a bank of Shaker-style wall and base units impress, to the opposite wall. A double-glazed door opens on the external wall - delivering you to the property’s private balcony - which runs the width of the building (over 16 feet, by nearly 5). Enjoy afternoon to late sun here, and surprisingly verdant views.

The reception room rests next door to the eat-in kitchen (part-open-plan in style), with engineered wooden floors flowing through. This bright lounge is over 13 feet by nearly 9 feet.

Up to the second floor and you’ll find the twin-windowed master bedroom, of over 15 feet by over 10 feet. And concluding the tour is your attractive bathroom - with traditional-style sanitary ware and fittings, and more metro tiling.

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 supermarkets. Some of our favourite spots are Hermits Cave, Little Cellars, The Camberwell Arms, Nandine, Veraison Wines, Forza Win, The Crooked Well and Theo’s.

In the opposite direction, head to Brixton Village for a brilliant selection of food and drink outlets. And central Brixton is home to 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.
