Hillyard Street, Stockwell

£925,000

Attractive and chain free terraced modern townhouse of 1149 square feet, with four double bedrooms, on a quiet offshoot of Brixton Road in Stockwell/Oval borderland. The practical home ticks lots of boxes! You or your tenants will enjoy off-street parking out front, and a south-facing garden of over 40 feet to the rear.

Your nearest tube stations are Stockwell and Oval. Walk 10-15 minutes. Brilliant bus routes are the order of the day, too. Well-regarded local primary schools include Reay, Van Gogh (these two just 0.2 miles from your door) and St. Helen’s (0.5).

From your hall, the neat fitted independent L-shaped kitchen sits to your right, with window over the sink onto your front garden/drive. Find modern white wall and base units here. Appliances are included in the sale.

Next down the hall is a downstairs w.c. to your right, and an under-stairs cupboard to your left.

At the back of the house you have your reception room onto the garden. This is over 12 feet each way, with central double doors out to the generous and sunny lawned garden.

Your first floor delivers a large bedroom to and across the rear of the house (there are two bedrooms which could win the principal bedroom title!), of over 12 feet each way, with a Juliet balcony. Next door is a modern internal bathroom, then to the front of the house, find a cute double of 12 feet by over 7 feet.

Your second floor hosts a large double to the rear (12 feet each way), with a built-in wardrobe, and a neat en suite shower room. Then to the front is a large double of 12 feet by 11 feet.

This is such a well-connected spot! Stockwell, Oval and Kennington have loads of good cafes, restaurants and pubs to choose from. A few of so many good ones are 24 The Oval, Canton Arms, The Derby and Fentamin Arms. There are good convenience stores on Brixton Road, and a good Polish deli.

Your most local substantial green space is Kennington Park (originally called ‘Kennington Common’): a Victorian-era public park, with cafe, sporting facilities, winding paths, mature trees, and an Old English flower garden featuring at its centre. Clapham Common is a brief bus ride of cycle, or a 30 minute walk.

For more options, Camberwell, Nine Elms, Battersea and Clapham centres are all close.
