Transport options are strong and many in this neighbourhood, with Brixton Hill close for buses, and Brixton and Streatham Hill stations an easy walk.

A tiled path is a pleasing welcome. From the shared hall your own front door is straight ahead. From the top of the stairs here/half-landing, you have your first double bedroom straight ahead (this has painted floor boards, two sash windows, a slimline radiator and a beautiful period feature fireplace) and a modern sash-windowed shower room - with contemporary fittings and concealed plumbing. A handy laundry cupboard is next door.

From the landing proper, you have a massive reception/dining room to the front of the house (of over 16 feet by over 15 feet), which has a big bay window plus separate sash (facing sunny south-west), and folding doors to your tasteful fitted kitchen - which is over 12 feet by over 10 feet. Stripped floors impress. Both rooms have attractive fireplaces.

Up to the second floor and you have a second double bedroom above the first (again with painted floor boards and a period feature fireplace), with a smart sash-windowed bathroom adjacent (high-end contemporary fittings bringing the smiles).

Finally at the top of the flat is the biggest bedroom - in the bright converted attic space. Wooden floors look great with the white walls. And you have two Velux windows as well as a sash. Accessible eaves storage up here completes the tour.

Brockwell Park (with Lido, tennis courts and formal gardens) is local. You can also walk through it to reach Herne Hill with its weekend markets and nice cafes.

Streatham Hill Station is your closest, and offers up a London Victoria journey-time of just 17 minutes. You can also easily pick up the tube (Victoria line) from Brixton - a 25 minute walk/brief bus ride; from one of the stops on Brixton Hill, several routes will drop you to Brixton tube in under 10 minutes.

Central Brixton, Brixton Hill, Clapham, Streatham Hill, Streatham High Road are close for shops, bars, restaurants and things to do. We particularly like Negril on Brixton Hill, Naughty Piglets on Brixton Water Lane, Nanban (Japan meets Brixton Market) on Coldharbour Lane and of course The Ritzy for film-watching. It is all at your fingertips.
