2 bedroom maisonette to rent

A thoughtfully decorated and loved first floor two bedroom Victorian terrace flat on Barnwell Road, SW2 , in between Brixton and Herne Hill (in the heart of the sought after Poet's Corner area).

The location is fantastic. Brockwell Park is a two minute walk from the front door, offering open green space, tennis courts and Brockwell Lido in the summer months (or year round if you're brave!). As a neighbouring road to the park, local residents get free Brockwell Park festival tickets in the summer. Lots of local restaurants are within a 3 minute walk, never mind all the options available in Brixton Market, and the Sunday market in Herne Hill, you really have the best of both worlds in this location.

Transport links are excellent:

• 10 minute walk to Brixton station (Victoria Line)
• 10 minute walk to Herne Hill station
• Multiple bus routes operate nearby
• The area is particularly well suited to cycling
• Parking permits are often available on street

Sainsbury's is two minutes away for day to day shopping. Koala coffee shop and ice cream are at the end of the road, and the Barnwell Road parklet provides a welcoming community space to enjoy your ice creams.

The Property

This first floor flat has been owner occupied for five years and underwent a full renovation three years ago, including a brand new kitchen, a new bathroom and redecoration throughout.

The property is dual aspect, with windows to both the front and rear, creating a very light and airy feel throughout the day. Morning sun fills the front rooms, while the private terrace benefits from afternoon and evening sun. With hardwood floors throughout, it is super easy to keep clean and a bright, welcoming space.

The terrace is a rare feature. It is private and not overlooked, and is the only flat on the road with this arrangement, creating a peaceful and secluded outdoor space that is particularly enjoyable in the summer.

The kitchen and living space is bright and airy and leads directly onto the terrace. The kitchen includes a washing machine and a dishwasher, as well as gas hobs and a full size fridge/freezer. It has quartz counters throughout, including the kitchen island which offers lots of hidden storage.

The bathroom is unusually large for a property of this size and feels open and airy, with a bath/shower, and a heated towel rail. It also has loads of in built storage.

The main bedroom offers extensive storage and is particularly quiet for such a central location.

The second bedroom is highly flexible and is currently arranged as a snug/spare bedroom. It has recently been painted, with one blue feature wall, and includes extensive shelving storage and a sofa bed. The room accommodates a full double bed if preferred, and previously had a standing desk office set up in addition to the armchair. Original Victorian features remain, including a decorative fireplace in this room.

Additional benefits include attic storage space.

The property is offered furnished. Bills are not included. Availability is due to a work relocation and the intention is to let for a couple of years.
